Re: FAHCoreWrapper keywords?

The points estimate is based on the WU download and upload times that the client has, it is not based on anything server side. Points are based on those times, not the start or finish time. This seem to be true I had a WU that passed the timout.. .and was even close to getting to the "expirati...

Re: 0.0.0.0 server - CAN'T UPLOAD ?

Also it always helps if you at least mention the server you having problem with. Yes as a new member you could have restrictions on pasting URL:s, but at least you could write down the server name (first part of the result if in a cmd window paste "nslookup <ip address>" If this turns out ...

Re: 11752 cant upload to 140.163.4.231:80

...Or even better (if I let my brain stretch a bit): Have a client that creates a torrent for each finished WU, which all other clients (if they choose to accept) joins in on (with DHT), and suddenly you get one of the worlds largest distribution networks for the scientists to collect their WU:s fr...

140.163.4.231 is now working since about 1hour Right click your F@H icon, next to the clock (on windows desktop), and choose "Quit" Then start up your client again by searching for "Folding@home", and press enter. The client should now start up again, but with lower timeouts for ...

Re: 11752 cant upload to 140.163.4.231:80

Thanks Tohya. The server page is reporting its CS with fah4 as "failed", so I kind of want to come to the same conclusion. Although in my Client has NEVER tried to connect to fah4 (52.224.109.74). My client reports 140.163.4.231 as the Work Server And 0.0.0.0 as the Collection Server. And ...

Re: It's getting better now, isn't it?

The idea of a P2P storage system for FAH has already been tested ... I don't know why it has never been chosen, but here are some readings on the subject : http://en.fah-addict.net/articles/6-storage-home/ Thanks for that info. Although the detailed pdf about the "Storag@home" is now gone...

...I checked the ones from Qwarkman and treckin, and they both also got assigned WUs that someone else already had returned on March 30th. Is it normal that we got WUs that were already returned a few days prior by other people ? Could it be the reason why we cant return ours ? Generally speaking, ...

KTH Royal Institute of Technology seems to have fired up one, too. Great seeing some engagement in the Nordic countries as well 8-) Saw that too!

Re: How much CPU to drive GPU

This is interesting read, and a quick web search show me a lot of things Nvidia have done to solve a lot of legacy issues, think this interrupt thing is one of them (dating back to poor PCI Express chipsets around 2003, but where many say those problems were solved 2006+ and there is no longer the n...

Re: Donar name change and their credit and WU related?

I also thought about this when registering: It is very simple to just type anything, and get going. It even says "you do not have to have a passkey"... Even if it is true, it is a sloppy way of entering. As I understand it each username gets a "number" that is linked to your &quo...

Re: Can't upload to 140.163.4.241

..it seems this particular server has 20.48KiB of space left As a newbie, and a nerd: Can you see that somewhere? Or did you just guess that out of only the server letting you send 0.51% I managed to upload exactly 0.43%, but that translates to 63,89KiB (if taking that percentage from my WU being u...

Re: Can't upload to 140.163.4.231:80

There are another thread reporting this same server (can not link, due to being a newbie on forum). But the recommendation from PantherX is maybe not the best. Just did a restart, and instead my computer reset all the work timers, and my Client is now hammering this server, trying to deliver my fini...

Re: 11752 cant upload to 140.163.4.231:80

Same here, but it doesnt seem to be completely dead... rather more like out of disk space. Not posting log here (due to restrictions being a newbie on forum) but as many in this already have. The upload starts a couple of percent and then stops. Mine (project 11750) stops at 0.43%. Hope this can be ...

Re: Privacy concerns about Folding@home

I am a strong supporter of owning your own data, and how the world works today with big companies literally controlling the world by having YOUR data (instead of waging war) is a big concern. But in a way we lost that war when Intel and AMD included stuff in hardware like "signed code" etc...
