Okay just joined but how do I put the client so it will do RC5?? Right now it's doing OGR, I've asked several people but they won't tell me, what's the deal??

Edit your dnetc.ini file so it reads like this:

[misc]
project-priority=RC5,OGR=0,CSC,DES edit: note that in "OGR=0," the "0" is the numeral 0, not the letter O.

or this:

[misc]
project-priority=RC5,OGR,CSC,DES

The first way prevents the client from doing any OGR at all, and the second way tells it to do OGR only if it has run out of RC5 and cannot get more packets (or if RC5 is closed because the key was found).

Welcome to the Team! 🙂 What are you running the client on so far, and do you have some more assimilations lined up? Post again if you have any questions, we are all here to help. 🙂

I have a tbird 1.2ghz, and no i'm not running anything else

 

[Daudi]

okay so my entire .ini file reads like this..


[parameters]
id=MY EMAIL

[display]
progress-indicator=auto-sense

[misc]
project-priority=RC5,OGR,CSC,DES

I'm not an expert, but that looks good to me...

Mine looks like this:

[parameters]
id=ME@B.C

[networking]
keyserver=proxy80.teamanandtech.com

[rc5]
randomprefix=1
preferred-blocksize=33
fetch-workunit-threshold=512

[misc]
project-priority=RC5,DES=0,CSC=0,OGR=0
run-work-limit=0

[logging]
log-file-limit=100
log-file="C:\Program Files\distributed.net\rc5.log"
log-file-type=fifo

[triggers]
restart-on-config-file-change=yes

[buffers]
frequent-threshold-checks=3
threshold-check-interval=0:30


So, starting from the top, in the [Networking] section, fetch blocks from the TeamAnandTech servers (you get to see your stats there, updated every 15 minutes!) In the [Misc] section, do *only* RC5. In the [Logging] section, maintain a text file that logs the progress of the client. In the [Triggers] section, if I make a config change, the client will automatically reload itself. In the [Buffers] section, every 30 minutes, do a fetch & flush.

Welcome Daudi! 😀 😀

Select 10 (Additional buffer-level checking) and set it to 4. This causes the client to update its buffers (send and receive data from the Internet) after the RC5 buffer is depleted. Otherwise, the client will automatically "cycle" through the entire RC5 buffer and then the entire OGR buffer before performing an update.

This will result in
[buffers]
frequent-threshold-checks=4

being added to your DNETC.INI


Those of you folks that have OGR=0 in your DNETC.INI file run the risk of having to reconfig when the RC5 contest ends. It's not a problem if you have only a few PCs and can get at them easily, but it will be a pain for some people.
