SETI@home caching program?

Mandrake 9.1
Is there one for Linux? There is a program listed on the SETI@home page but the link is not good anymore.

For those of us that are on dial up and do not always have a connection to the internet, it is a program that stores WUs so that you can still crunch away at them while you are disconnected and you do not need to have the connection up to retrieve the WUs. Then, when you connect, the program sends all of the information to the SETI@home server and downloads more WU caches.

are you talking about a client that will work for the command line version?? I believe seti hide will work for linux

edit seti spy is not a cahching program

Yes, I am looking for one that will work with the command line version in Linux.
I am looking at http://ksetispy.sourceforge.net/manual/cache-setup.html and it appears that ther is a caching option available. I am going to give it a shot and see what happens.

intresting I kow the regular version of seti spy is not a caching program. You have to use seti driver for that and seti spy to see your progress. Hope it works good for ya.

Yeah...I was waiting for SETISpy to get caching abilities...but I stopped running SETI just recently.
