OK well I checked and did not have the port set to 2064. I had the xtremepccentral site listed but not the port we'll see.
I went through everything listed on mikes stats page as to how to set up the client double checking it all.
When you first run the client software. You will be presented with the configuration menu.
Enter 1 for the General Client Options menu.
Enter 1 again then type in your email address. This needs to be a working email address.
So that you can receive your password, and so that Distributed.net can get a hold of you if your client finds the winning key.
Enter 0 to return to the main menu.
Enter 2 for the Buffer and Buffer Update Options menu.
Enter 6 for the Keyserver<->client connectivity options
Enter 2 then press 'n' for no.
Enter 3 then type in 'www.xtremepccentral.com'. This is the proxy server. When the client sends it's completed blocks to it.
You will automatically appear on the statistics pages of this site.
Enter 4 then enter in '2064'.
You are now finished configuring the client. To exit and save your settings. Enter '0' until it has left the configuration menu.
I think I'm just going to have to give up one of my computers.
The 1.4 Tbird I use all the time just doesn't seem to crunch.
It will go all night and not do a block. It seems to process about 26K verses the 4mm the others do. :( I've reinstalled the software from the .exe and the zip files used the http and ftp to get it because someone suggested corruption but it all acts the same way. I think I have something goofed up, but I even printed the dang readme's and read them! Something I've never done before! :D I found nothing of any value in them as far as listing what all the set up options in the client do. The last ditch effort was to try and run it as a service and see if that helped... But I doubt it would.
I sure wish I could find out exactly what each setting meant so I could double check everything. If anyone has a link let me know.
another edit Is there anyway to resend what I have been sending all week?
There are 2 log files aren't there? One in and one out?? (I assume it was out the one thats mentioned in the setup screen has the word exit in it or something like that? ) Should I have a log file set up?
