New work computer came in at end of last week, but couldn't get it hooked up to internet bc network admin was out of town and he only allows mac addresses that he knows of, etc, etc.

But today is Tuesday and he is back in town so I added a 3.2e folding!

sig updated to reflect as such.
 
and by next week hopefully my dual 1800 stuff will be in and I can get it folding as well!

oh, btw...for the dual rigs: I recall that you run two instances of FAH and such, yes?
 
I run two FAH clients on my dually.

To set it up:

1. Create two differant directories
2. copy only the 'setup' program into each directory (don't copy any other files)
3. run the loader and set the same username on each and team as '33'
4. say 'yes' to advanced options
5. For the first one set machine id to '1' and the second one to machine id '2'
6. After it's configured, shut it down.
7. Restart them with the '-local' option enabled.
8. Make sure the current working directory is differant when you run them.

Here is the batch file I use to run them.

Code: 
@echo off

cd /D C:\fah1
start "FAH1" fah4console.exe -local

cd /D C:\fah2
start "FAH2" fah4console.exe -local
 
Not sure, but if you run 2 FAH clients without it on the same machine, it (the FAQ) says you will only get credit for 1.

Check out the FAQ link sticky, then check out the FAQs at the [H]Folding Site and also the offical site, both of them give a lot of good info on running 2 FAH clients on a dually.


cheers!
 
I believe the local switch allows it to work off the local directory or something. This just allows it to run more than one of these processes at a time on one machine. You could theoretically run two of these, in different directories, on a one CPU machine.
 
You shouldn't need the -local flag if you just make sure you give each instance it's own machine id. We used to have to run with the -local flag back in the day before they put the machine id setting in there, but I don't think it hurts anything to leave it on these days.
