Well, it's been quite a long time that I've been around these forums. I used to participate for TA as an RC5 member then I moved to ECCp-109 however something happened.. can't quite remember what and I stopped doing both. Just a couple days ago I began participating again in the ECCp project after investigating stats and what not as well as these forums and noticed that you guys needed help. I have 1 800 mhz athlon and another 600 mhz ibm thinkpad both running.

The help that I need consists in two areas:

1) I don't remember when ECCp first started if they had a command client or not, however now I noticed that do have one. My question is, which is faster and what have you guys seen better output with.

2) My 800 mhz athlon runs perfectly great, however the 600 mhz laptop can't seem to send the WU's at all. I have both clients set up exactly the same. The computers are networked and don't leave my room. Does anyone have any clue to the reason why my 800 can send and my laptop cannot?

Thank you ahead of time for any help that you can offer.

Hi SnO, nice to have you back! 🙂

There isn't a notable difference between the current GUI and CLI clients. The fastest (for windows systems) are the clients from Ken_g6.

As for your problem sending in DP's, since there could be mutliple reasons can you expound upon that a bit (such as which client)? First, you may want to check your dplist.log to see what it says after an unsuccessful send attempt.

You should see a line like this:
# xmit() called at Sat Jun 8 22:16:58 2002


On a successful send, you get:
server ACK'd:
<list of DP's>

Successfully sent points flushed from dplist
10 of 10 points successfully transmitted.


An unsuccessful send may give you something like this:
Couldn't connect to host erdos3.math.nd.edu!
Attempt to connect timed out without establishing a connection
Successfully sent points flushed from dplist
Warning: only 0 of 10 points transmitted.



Also, make sure you just didn't copy the eccinfo and plist files from a previous install. If you did, just delete them and restart the client.
