Thanks for your support!

 

[ccalvert]

Yeah, congratulations!

BTW Russ, still no word from dnet, I am convinced that they either forgot about me, or do not intend to reply. At the moment, I am just working on the DNS resolver (it is not working for some reason, and I am stumped as to why), and making the numlock key be on by default (should be very easy, though I have not tried it yet because I have been busy on the DNS problems). After that, I am going to considder it beta quality, and send a copy to dnet, hoping that with it being much more user friendly, they will at least judge it to be worth responding to. Just thought that I would give you a little update since you probably have not heard about it in a while, though I guess that it is probably not as important now that you have it working by other means (at least I think that you do)... Happy cracking!

As strange as it is to say :WAY TO GO BORG. Now can you introduce me to Seven of Nine?

Ccalvert, I even emailed them direct about your floppy, and no response. I ask again - as long as you are loading the official dnet Linux client on the floppy, why does dnet care that you've packaged it on a single floppy? They don't dictate what OS we use or how it's configured... they only ask that we use official clients. Isn't that what you are doing??

 

[Poon]

Congrats guys!!

 

[Ducky]

Batti, yeah, I am only using the official client, and I checked the copyright statement in the /docs/dnetc.txt file that comes with it, along with the webpage http://www.distributed.net/legal/policy.html, and it looks like I should be able to distribute it since all that I have seen is basicly just saying that it is only to be used in distributed.net projects, that you have to have authorization to run it on a computer, and that you will allow them to put your e-mail address in the stats. However, the page http://www.distributed.net/download/clients.html says &quot;Please do not make attempts to mirror or redistribute the client binaries, either via your own web/ftp server or other means.&quot;. Because of this, I really want to get their okay before I distribute anything with the client on it. I think that I might have a lead on the DNS problem, though I really can't say yet. As soon as I get that going, I am going set it up so that numlock is enabled by default. After that, I think that I will consider it beta quality, and send them another e-mail with the newer image. Maybe I will here something eventualy.
