FaD - The TeAm Has Taken 15'th Place

[Ross Whitehead]

The TeAm has taken 15'th place and we should take 14'th place in the next day or two.

In addition, we have gained a few extra members the last couple days so it should be interesting to see what our TeAm prduction is on the next stats run.

Go TeAm!

Awesome...

We need more members... Come join us, its real easy, and fun. What is great about it is you can make a big differance in our stats with just a machine or 2...

Go to http://find-a-drug.org, and download either a windows or linux version. Make up your name for a nickname. (use the same one for multiple computers), your email addr. Then go to general and add 2039 for the team number. Simple as that, most of the workunit are done in under 12 hours on a 2+ghz machine.

Take care, and join the up an coming leaders of FaD.

I second that, the program is redicuously easy to setup on puters... just install and walk away... requires virtually no maint... unless you want to focus it on certain projects... even then you may have to visit machines once every couple days... but thats only if you want to keep it on one project...

Looks like we will hit #14 today... 🙂

 

[Ross Whitehead]

I could not agree more dringdahl. Look at yourself. You have risen to 16'th place on the TeAm in your first week and I expect you to be in about 6'th place this time next week.

I second the above! 😀

We're heading up a few places fast (Congrats everyone! 😀), but with a few more members we could easily hit the top ten or even the top five!

Most excellent. I just got one system up under Knoppix. How do I tell what's going on in Linux? It's running, but not visibly.

Where are the stats for this project?

if you use

./server -monitor when you load it, you can see the status

 

[grendel8]

BC;

./server -list will show you the status. Cat your hostname.tlg file to see your CPU score, etc. ps will show that think and server are running.

dr:

How does the -monitor switch work? Will it work if the process is run in the background or only the foreground?

If you do:

./server -monitor &

it will keep running, but you will lose the text is you disconnect, then just:
ps -A
find the PID number, then:
kill PID#

then restart.

Remember server just feeds work units, so you lose no processing in the restart.
