[ECC2] Uploading?

[implexant]

okay so how do i upload the DPs? i'm just slightly confused. i have the newest client. i am behind a NAT router w/ a firewall... don't know if that causes trouble. if that is trouble... whats the easiest way around it?

-Chris

By going to the manual submission page and uploading that way. Be sure to rename the ecc2-109.pnd file.

but thats a pain-in-the-rear-end! isn't there an easier way? automated?

-Chris

Since I'm behind a firewall at work, I have to do the same thing. I actually have a .bat file that collects the DP's. I have to go from PC to PC, but I only do it once a week now.

You could also try the 'SMTP' way. Do you have an SMTP post office?

i have a SMTP server if thats what your referring to....

explain about this .bat file...

and tell more about the SMTP way....

thanks so much for your help!

In the ecc2-109.cfg file, you will notice these lines;

// This is the name of the mail server you will
// be using. If you do not know the name of your
// mail server, check your mail client config
// settings.
//
// smtp=mail.eCompute.org

Just uncomment the 'smtp=mail.eCompute.org' and put your server's address in there. It should send an e-mail to eCompute w/ your DP's.

Be sure to comment 'server=ecc2.eCompute.org' or else it won't work.

As for the .bat file, It's just a simple .bat that copies and mores the .pnd file onto a floppy, then deletes it from the machine. I don't even have to shutdown the service/client. I think I posted it's contents back in the ECCp109 days, I'll look aournd and find it.

well i did that and we'll see if it works. thanks for all the help!

[EDIT] well apparently the newest version has the ability to go through firewalls cuz i see it submitted DPs before i did the SMTP thing. so thanks again!
