Old friend gone awry :-)
A few years back, I used to run SETI at home on my Windows machine. This is
the first of but a few attempts at distributed computing at its utmost. Never
had any problems with it--when I needed the CPU more intensively, I shut down
the SETI.
So, I saw it on SID, also got an email posting from them, so decided to give
it a try in Linux. Set and then went to work on a project somewhere else. I
left the machine on because I am trying to get SSH to work, so far, unable to
connect from outside. When I came home, nothing worked. The system
complained, falsely, of no file space. I shut down SETI and all was fine.
BTW. This was not an alien installation but from a deb :-)
Does anyone know how to run this more safely, keeping ET at home?
