this wu has been stuck for about a day! i have paused the client many times to decrease the interval between attempts, and so far it has tried 108 times . prcg is 14236 (544, 3, 43) . is it not possible to make it choose another server since both of these are out of service (according to the servar...

The client.db file in the work directory is a SQLite database that contains an ID record in the Config table. It can be queried with DB Browser for SQLite ( https://sqlitebrowser.org/ ) AKA sqlitebrowser package on Linux. I had to make a copy of the .db file since it's locked by FAH. sqlitebrowser ...

My concern is that once you do the install, FAHClient will contact the internet and get a unique id number and you'll then zip up the unique installation and it will no longer be unique. You absolutely do not want to propagate that unique value to more than the one machine that obtains it. but the ...

I agree. Downloading the .deb files onto a flash drive ot CD isn't a violation. Pre-installing things and zipping them would be. ə i would think that copying the executables and zipping them, then unzipping on a different comp without installing, would create dependency problems or say the command ...

The EULA requires that you download the client from https://foldingathome.org/alternative-downloads/ or from an authorized distributor. You can choose Windows/os-X/Linux. This solves two issues. *1 FAH knows that the downloads are virus-free *2 The CPUID will be assigned at the correct point in the...

Welcome to the F@H Forum Rwolf01, If you have multiple systems on the same LAN network, you can configure Advanced Control (AKA FAHControl) to monitor all the client which can be easier. Alternatively, you can use HFM.NET to monitor your clients across systems (https://github.com/harlam357/hfm-net)...

Yes, every time a client contacts the servers for the first time, it is assigned a unique UserID. FAH doesn't store important information in the registry. I suspect it's in the .db. It's not something that I have a particular reason to look up. ə where is the registry on a mint box? i always though...

It sounds like each machine gets it's own ID number from the mother ship. The question is where do they keep it? If it's in the registry, you might be okay, since that doesn't get zipped. If it's in the install directory you could be duplicating work. (If you clone the whole system disk with True I...

If you use the same username and passkey, each computer should get a different WU. However do not clone an installation of Folding@home from one computer to another. Each installation is given an unique machine ID the first time the folding client connects to the folding servers, if you clone the i...
