machine ID

Post by dereksbelanger » Mon Jan 25, 2010 11:23 am

Hi guys,

Do you need a different machine ID for every computer/client?

...or is it that you just need different machine IDs when running multiple clients on one computer?

I use a different machineID for every folding process with my username attached.
So I have GPU and SMP on my main pc and 2 single thread instances on my server. Thus I use 4 different machineIDs

Thanks kittle! Why do you do that?

I only change them for multiple jobs on the same machines. Having a different machine id for every job would be a little hard to keep track of, I imagine. Maybe it's just me.
