SETI Driver or SETIQ????

[Vader2K]

I'm currently using SETI Driver along with SETISpy and the 3.0 CLI. Does anyone have a preference of one over the other? Does SETIQ work well with SETISpy like SETI Driver does?

For a network SetiQ no doubt about it.

For a single machine SetiDriver unless, the computer doesn't have a dedicated phoneline and you can't go to the location to manually dump the wu's very often. SetiQ allows you to specify a time for it to automatically dial in and do it's thing. I have it running on a remote system and it only connects at night while the user is asleep so it doesn't tie up the phoneline when they might need it.

SetiDriver is much easier to setup but I think SetiQ is the better program. My only complaint is there isn't an option to hide the setiQ dos box so you have to use a 3rd party hiding program such as trayer or hide it.

Edit: BTW setispy works just fine with setiQ.

Hi Vader2K,

I use all three together. (belt and suspenders?) I keep one days worth of WU's on each machine using SetiDriver, then SetiQ has a four day stash. I do this simply because SetiDriver nicely manages the client (cli3.0) and I have a buffer in case the server goes down. It works great!

Hi Blade...

Why don't you do like mee..
I have installed setiq as a service like OfficeBoy Or Assim1 once showed...

It works great..

It seems to take about 0.01 sec CPU time a day. Pretty ok.

Ofcourse this only works under WinNT..

If you want I can post my script...

It was Office Boy

What we need is a way to do it for Win 9x/me

Soni, unfortunately I'm running WinME. I guess one day I'll have to break down and buy Win2000. The only problem is it cost $$$$. But thanks anyway I'm sure someone will be interested in how to do it.
