Right now I am running PrimtNT as a service. To see what stage I'm in,
I've been stop/starting the service in order to get that info written to the
'results.txt' file. NTSETUP 'manual communication', and 'status' simply
give me a 'prime.log' completion date.
If I've missed something please lead me in the correct direction; if
not, is this something possible for the next release?
BTW, like I mentioned in an earlier post, I've been running through
stages 1 and 2 for the past 12 days at say 90% capacity - 'status' has now
has me finishing exactly 12 days later than it originally stated. Do
completion date computations include factoring? Should I be worried?
Thanks,
Carleton
