Hi, I've got a network of two MS Win computers sitting behind a Leaf Bering firewall running on a p133. The Bering box shares my internet connection (previously Cable, currently serial modem, hopefully soon ADSL) to the other two computers. This it does flawlessly. My problem is that I'm too ch

Hi, To run LRP in vmware, just split the 1680 floppy into two 1440 floppies. winimage will do most of the work for you but you will need a linux box to syslinux the new 1440 disk. ( or as I have, a ZipSlack running in VMWare :) Dont forget to update your syslinux.cfg to remove 1680 and to add

Hi, The seti package I'm using is from: http://lrp.gibbsoft.com/lrps/seti-v3_03.lrp the home page is at: http://lrp.gibbsoft.com/ You need a reasnonable amount of ram as you'll probably have to increase the size of your ram-disk and seti also uses ram. add the following to your syslinux.cfg

Hi, We're getting a little off-topic here, but the answer to your question is no. You can run two independant seti's which will have the same effect i.e. twice the number of Work Units in the same amount of time vs. one WU in half the amount of time :0) TTFN Antony Briggs -Original Message
