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.🙂
