SoB: Where's the WU?

[Ken g6]

Where does SoB save its partially completed Proth test? I wanted to take a test to a faster machine (I'm only planning to complete one for now), but when I copied the SoB directory, it didn't find the WU.

Edit: This was the Windows GUI, but I'm curious about Linux, too, although I haven't tried it yet.

the best i have been able to glean, it is placed into the registery and some files that are hard to find

basically, SoB is a SoB to try and sneakernet/save the work if you have to redo your box

good luck

The file zXXXXXXX is the "WU". That is the number that's being worked on.

And I believe that the Reg Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\LhDn\sob\cache is how far it's done etc


But i've not done this before, so not too sure

Let me know if this works

Linux is easier (well, duh ), no registry crap . There are just files 'zXXXXXXX' and 'cache' in the directory in which you run sb.

Thanks! I'll take a look at the registry tomorrow.

I'm also glad it's simpler in Linux. I'm thinking about setting up a sneakernet SoB disk (or two).

It worked! Thanks, guys! Now you can assimilate people with just this .reg file, if Windows Media Player would stop popping up to read it.
