Folding Forum

Similar situation here.

Two systems with 8800GT using client 6.23 for months have been assigned P7623 which they cannot fold.

Delete files, and server reassigns P7623 from same project/server.

I notice that server 171.64.122.139 behaves in a similar manner to 128.143.48.226. Yesterday, I tried to return a work unit to server 171.64.122.139 and received the now familiar: - Server reports problem with unit. Today, the following described work unit was downloaded on a Internet connected mach...

If you follow these recommendations to copy your WUs, you shouldn't have issue returning them : http://fahwiki.net/index.php/Sneakernetting Thanks toTOW, for the link to the FahWiki, it is a great resource. I never specifically used this "sneakernetting" procedure, in fact it did not exis...

...server is using the newest code, and might have a few quirks that were not present in the older server code. Am I correct in summarizing by saying that the problem seems to be that the machine ID did not match -- when it was changed to match the machine it was downloaded on, then it worked? Yes,...

This problem may be related to differing Machine ID: #'s (or possibly other parameters) on the download computer versus the computer that actually folded the work units. On a few troublesome work units (work units that "Server reports problem with unit"); This was tried: - Changing the sen...

Noone else met this issue??? Similar observations here. Log indications for several work units: p3860 through p3864, are similar to those initially posted by Trotador. This is an example: [16:34:15] Loaded queue successfully. [16:34:15] Attempting to return result(s) to server... [16:34:15] Trying ...

The competition is based on accumulated points in set time intervals, every three months. EUEs and work units count only by the number of accumulated points that they represent.

I am running 2 Linux SMPs in Ubuntu inside VMPlayer. It is all installed on a Vista machine.? My experience is with WinXP and VMware Server. VMware Server seems to be slightly better for SMP folding application see Wiki: Comparision of Virtual Machines. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_vi...

In the testing I did I found 2 XP SMP clients with A-Ch resulted in a higher PPD than 2 VMware Lin SMP clients. I was getting ~4300 PPD with XP vs. ~4100 PPD with VMware. This is more likely a result of the WUs received. 2653's on XP and a mix of 2605, 2608, and 2609 on Linux. The fold rates listed...

...possible to add ability to also assign VMware instances ...to run VMwares with linux client..) Thanks for considering. About running VMware, I have found that WinXP running two VMware instances (Ubuntu) provides a gain in processing speed relative to two WinXP instances (even with your A-Ch). An...

...that advanced scheduler in Linux does all the stuff like Affinity Changer itself...so affinity changer for linux is not really needed. Thanks rilian, for the info regarding Linux OS & affinity. Do you think it might be possible to add a feature to the existing Windows Affinity Changer (A-Ch)...
