The Dimes Project

[Frederik]

I've been wondering this lately: can somebody tell me what a asnode and a asedge exactly is?
It seems that i'm the top user for the asnodes, but I really don't know what it is

Is the Dimes project still running,i see only 31% of the members that are returning work.

Is it just dl and install the dimes file i have dl from there site,thats all i have to do,or maybe some other prog to.

Hi Rocker, we might only be at 31% but we are in the top 3 for production just about everyday. So please install on your farm and get diming, it runs great with D2OL.

Thanks !

Ok,i install them on 4 rigs for now,lets see how much it will give.

I think its ok to run Dimes on PII and PI rigs,i have 2 of them,PII 200mhz and PI 100mhz,i will hook up those two also,so thats 6 rigs in total,that will bring a nice number .

Wow,it say's that it cant run Dimes becaus java is not installed,how is this possible D2OL needs java to and D2OL is running on this rig .

Anybody??

[Helheim]

It depends on how you have D2OL installed. If you used rod's installer you need to add the “C:\XS_D2OL\D2OL1\jre\bin� folder to your path and then it will work.

[RocKer]

Its ok now,its running.

But is there a prog to monitor Dimes,like Dspy for D2OL is,i mean how can i see how many points i have already done,and how many times does it upload results,is it also every 6 hours,or??

[Pipi]

So anybody can join the XS team?

[[XC]thewildblue]

No prog that Im aware of.

Hi Pipi of course anyone can join the team.

[[XC] DragonOrta]

TWB, are you getting the farm back up? Your production took a spike today.

[[XC]thewildblue]

Well Ive added a couple of PIIIs at my new office, but nothing major. I "infected" my sisters and dads systems as well. I can get away with Dimes as its not really noticeable.

[Pipi]

How do you get to any setup or anything? I click the dimes agent in Start -> ... but nothing happens. When installing i chose 'use Dimes screensaver' and it does show just to crash most of the time when exiting from it.

[InSanCen]

CAn't say I've ever chosen the Screensaver option, but then, I don't use one (Hogs resources, and most Monitors can blank themselves).

MAbye try the other option?

i have comcast on cable internet, also using 2 comps on a linksys router, will this kill my bandwidth? if not i'll seriously be considering putting my clawhammer to work seeing as my sempron helped d20l

nless you are running VM's then having more RAM or a faster processor won't help, you can only have 1 DIMES agent per OS.

Bandwisth should be fine. I have a 40GB/Month cap, and I run 5 agents 24/7, and 2 a lot of the time, and I hardly notice it. So I'll be adding more soon (This weekend hopefully )

Has anyone here used a wireless card to get internet with their vmwares?? I don’t think my dad's is going to go for me running ~4 Ethernet cables to my room alone. Instead, can I get a wireless router (for my room) plug it into the Ethernet cable, set the wireless network up, and make sure all of my comps have a wireless card in them? Then, when I set up the vms, can I just set up bridged and it will work?? Or, a better idea, can I get a 4-way router, and use the cable from the old router that goes into my computer?? I think that might be a better (and cheaper) idea. Any input on either of those ideas would be much appreciated.

[KaptainBlaZzed]

i would go with an 8 port hub so you have room to expand and so you do not have complication with the other router such a 2 dHCP's and so on. I put a second router in my LAN once and i could not access the other comps on the other side of the router, plus a hub is cheaper.

a hub is what i use it works great.

Every once in a while, should you clear the messages??

Does anyone know what happened to Haltech? His production is all but non-existant, and he doesn't seem to come around very often anymore.

[[XC]thewildblue]

I think he got fed up with the stats situation.

[[XC] DragonOrta]

I thought that's what might have happened, which is understandable with all of the work he put into getting those VMS running.

[Jeff]

Too bad he let it get to him that much.

With the three machines I have left, I'm at about my maximum right now. It's not too shabby really but not even close to what I was producing for a time.

Onward and upward guys!!!

I know I'm REALLY late to the game here, but I'm trying to set up dimes and it seems like I'm getting port blocked by my router. I've looked around but cant find out what ports I need to unblock to get this to work. Thanks in advance!

[hixie]

I remember there was a thread that stated what ports to unlock for dimes, but it seems like it's gone.
