Folding Forum

I have had a linux box folding for several months. I just installed Windows XP/Vista/7/2003/2008, System tray (Systray) client installer with optional viewer 6.23 on a Dell notebook running XP Home SP3.

I installed using my folding 'name' and Team number and the passkey I am using on the Linux box. I just finished setting it up a few minutes ago.

How can I be sure the two machines are not processing the same work? Can I assume they are not?

thank you in advance.

Can I assume they are not?

Yes, so I don't really have to answer the other question.

But, open the fahlog.txt file, and it will show the PRCG numbers for the work unit on each system. The numbers will be different, and that's how you know.

Encouraging answer. I will check the logs. Thank you .. your help is appreciated.

Edited .. additional info

In looking at the two logs . both logs show the same machine number (1). Should I make the 'new' machine '2'?

New machine log says:

[22:46:08] Project: 6881 (Run 256, Clone 8, Gen 56) (P6881 R256 C8 G56 right?)

Old machine log says:

[19:17:25] Project: 6881 (Run 731, Clone 11, Gen 104) (P6881 R731 C11 G104 .. different from other machine)
[19:42:38] Project: 6881 (Run 731, Clone 11, Gen 104) (P6881 R731 C11 G104 .. different from other machine)
[00:05:13] Project: 6887 (Run 840, Clone 16, Gen 46) (P6887 R840 C16 G46 .. different from other machine)

so I guess I am OK(?).

The Machine ID is for the F@H Clients on the same machine. Since you have two separate machines, with a single F@H Client installed, there isn't any issue.

Thank you PantherX. I guess I am 'good to go' .. thanks to all the help I got. Thanks to both respondents.
