I think I'm going to install OpenBSD on a spare box I have, and was wondering if there would be any issue folding on it with the linux client. So is anyone using an OpenBSD box to fold? I don't want a perfectly good 2GHz Athlon XP not folding.

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Anyone using OpenBSD?

I've always wanted to try this, but it wasn't worth it on my PII 300MHz firewall.

Let us know how that goes, sandmanx. I havent gotten around to setting up my OpenBSD web/ftp server here at home, but it'd be nice to know how it'll fold when I do.
<Update>
I tried the method in the link, but it's ancient. I finally got it working after googling for about an hour and finding this:
http://forum.folding-community.org/viewtopic.php?t=8330
This worked for the latest version of OpenBSD, 3.7. My fist was about to go through my monitor until this finally worked. The older elf2olf method kept core dumping.
I think it's time they update their FAQ over at Stanford. Any idea who needs to be emailed about that?

BakedON said:Never really cared for Open.... I'm a NetBSD man.
Based on the same technology though so it's all good.
I've used all of them at some point. I haven't used Net or Open though in 5+ years, and figured I'd try them out again. I've got a NetBSD 68K Mac sitting under a desk at home(not on.)
