Re: Seti At Home & gethostbyname
Hello Judith,
I Had same problem while ago. I talked to tkseti coder and he had same
problems too. Turned out, you have to update your seti@home client to the
3.03 and THEN it will run just fine. I was completing units about every 8
hours, and now about every 12 hours, so it's doing a lot more analizing then
the older client.
wget won't work, it looks only for the 3.0 client, you will have to manually
get it and install it. http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/unix.html
