[FaD] New Linux Client

[Kc2iLq]

Anyone try it yet? My friend munky is installing it right now through ssh onto his machines at home (we're at school) and it seems to be going pretty smoothly. Anyone have any experience with it yet?

mondo (or anyone else)- when you set it up, lemme know how to set up a team through command line linux.
We tried the following...

isetup -nickname munky -email munky@munkys.com -team 2037

We're not sure if the team option will work this way though.

What THINK said on the new FaD boards for your team question

1. If you type ./isetup -help you will get a list of the setup options. This includes -team number to join a team.

By following what it says in the read me, I entered the following:

isetup -nickname eagle1 -email myemail@mail.com -team 2037

But still how do I know that think is running correctly?
I don't know! They should make a trace progress program or something. I know it is running in the machine (ps -A shows me that the server and think are running and top shows 99.0% running) but still I would like to know if its going thru a wu!

I missed the launch!

I was away... but now I'm back. Just gotta find some time to d/load and run the linux beta.

I'll report back here when I have.

Cheers

Anything yet mick?

Not yet. Didn't get a chance last night. Will have ago tonoght.

I'm gonna try to load it on a MDK 9 distro first, then I'll have a go at using Peanut Linux, as it's pretty small, and will fit on my smaller hard drives better.

Will report when I do. Maybe we need some sort of monitor (like tray.exe in windoze). Might be that with the single server queue on a windoze server you'll be able to use that to monitor network linux installations.

OK I got THINk and server running on MDK 9.

This is the process I used (for ppl like me who need a list.

1. D/load fadv121a.tgz into home dir.
2. tar -zxvf fadv121a.tgz
3. ./isetup -nickname yournick -email email@email.com -team 2037
4. ./server -auto &
(will then show PID eg [1] 1542)
5. ./think &
(will again show PID eg [2] 1561

If no error messages occured, all should be running. Can check they are there with a ps -A to check they are running, and a top to see hwo much CPU they are using.

Now, if only we could run the linux and windows clients off the same queue server. Not possible at present, I don't think.

Now to load Peanut linux and try that out!!.
