I've just put together another PC on which I am running DF.
I thought I would try, for something different, Linux Mandrake 9.1 in lieu of Wondows.
I am using a Windows 2000 Adv Serv as a Gateway on which WinProxy 4.0 is run to provide Proxy Services.
After installing Mandrake I successfully connected to the internet using the proxy server http settings 192.xxx.x.x and using Port 80.
This is identical to the 6 Windows PCs I have running DF via that same gateway.
Running ./foldit for the first time I set up the proxy configuration as I had for the other PCs however whenever the DF client attempts to connect to the host server it fails with an error message, Unable to locate Server.
The Proxy Server display window shows only a momentary connection from the Linux PC. I then attempted to establish a dedicated port on the Proxy Server, using 8080 as the incoming and directing the request to www.distributedfolding.org on Port 80. Again this was in vain.
Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Also, if I can't get a connection established, is there a way of transfering completed generations via Zip Disk to another PC for uploading?
Thanks.
