Folding using command line

[Steve-62]

I tried the command line version. It went out and downloaded the WU and then started crunching. How are you supposed to tell it who you are? Who your team is? etc etc?

confused in Alberta

You have to open up the "client" icon with notepad and change the user ID to what ever name you want and change the team to 734. Make sure you do this beforethe unit completes or it will go to anonamous like my first did.

Thanks JD.
Is there any speed improvement with the command line version over the graphical interface version?

[Steve-62]

Note pad won't open it (says it's too large) and when I allow word pad to open it I get giberish. Any ideas?

I started the CLP on a wu that was partly crunched with the windows client, so didn't have to change anything.
In Win2K, you can change priority in task sheduler on Core_65.exe (the crunching part).

In linux, the client asked me kindly my name and team #. I could improve some performance running the command "nice -n ./LinuxFAHR9.exe" (forces priority, the # goes from -20 to +20, the lower the more it gets priority).

[OldFrog]

The file to modify is client.cfg


Here is mine

[settings]
username=OldFrog
team=734
asknet=yes
userid=592442D25600597E

[http]
active=no

DON't MODIFY your userid

You can go that route or do as I have
for the last month and simply run the
newest version (still in beta state)
but it runs fine with no problems.
Version 2.17 console asks for your
name and team # when first started
and it runs equally stable to v2.15 .
They are supposed to release this as
the basic version in January so it has
been tested fairly extensively.

What Old Frog said.....do not change userID.
That is given to the computer, not the user.
Enjoy!

Where do I find the beta version 2.17?
I didn't see it on the official web site.

regards,

Like Old Frog said DON"T modify the user ID. I ment user. Not sure why notepad won't open it as mine opens fine. PM tazfan as he know where 2.17 is.
