Hey everyone,

I've been setting up both SETI and RC5 queues recently.
I know that the RC5 queue works, as I've sent and received blocks to and from it. I don't know that it dumps, that will be seen by my stats in the next couple of days. If they drop to about 400 per day and stay there, then it isn't dumping. If I set it up right, it should dump at 23:30, RC5 time.

The SETI Queue is being a bit more annoying.
I know it works within the lan it is on, but I'm not sure about it working over the net. I'll know that pretty soon though. Also, it doesn't seem to let you sign a new client in to seti thru it.
However it is up, and it currently has 11 wus in it (that should go up).

So here's the deal. These servers are for team use, and team use only. By using them, you can continue to crunch even if the project servers go down.

If you want to use them, set your proxy to oodslppp93.phnx.uswest.net and the port for seti is 5517, for RC5 it is the default port. RC5 may also work thru port 80. SETI won't work on port 80, as it is on a different machine then the webserver (if someone knows how to make it work, let me know). I don't know for a fact that the site will stay up, as it currently has a dynamic IP, although that should be changed soon. However, I've been using this link to connect since the server was set up, so I think it may point to the gatway, not to a set IP.

If you want to use either or both, go ahead.
If you have problems connecting, let me know. I'll see what I can do.

I really need some testers for the SETI queue. To test it, dump a wu to it, see if it dumps, and see if you can get a new one.

**If anyone is running a SETI buffer and wants to connect to the queue, let me know first so that you don't exhaust it. Same with large pulls from the RC5 queue.

Questions, comments, suggestions, complaints, general talk: post here.

Ok, forget trying to use them.
The IP appears to have changed. Blasted.

I'm trying to get a static IP, but my dad doesn't want to pay for one. Hopefully he'll change his mind.

I assume you're hosting these on your own machine, seeing as the problem is with you paying for a static IP?

If thats so, what method do you connect with? What kind of service - cable, xDSL?

Perhaps something can be arranged, depending...

I'm hosting them off an aDSL line at my dad's office.
He doesn't know they are there.
The RC5 proxy runs on a linuxmachine, but there are no SETI proxies for linux, so the SETI proxy currently runs on a Win98 machine.
The RC5 proxy is flawless, but the SETI proxy has already crashed once, and I'm still working the bugs out of it.

In order to get the static IP, I'd need to find two people who want small scale webhosting for $15/month, or 3 at $10/month.
That will pay for the IPs.
Of course, the SETI proxy also needs to run stable. I'm working on that.

I've convinced my dad that his company needs a website, but he is really cheap and doesn't want to pay for the price increase for static IPs.
