741*2^325661-1 is prime! (confirmed prime)
Now I'm just being greedy
Karsten post:
for information:
between 1:30 AM GMT and 6:30 AM GMT (08 Feb 08) there were about 3800 k/n-pairs handed out from the server.
current rate is about 50 k/n-pairs per 5 minutes.
current k/n-pair at n=327270 (and about n -> n+4 every 5 minutes).
so about 68000 pairs left on server -> 113 hours of work (~50 pairs per 5 min)
The rally will start within 8 hours.
Well, Carlos, you ignored my question of whether there's anything special required of us and I won't be around when it starts at noon EST.
I do most of what I laughingly call "work" on weekends. Actually, almost entirely on Saturdays.
So I'm starting a couple of clients now and I'll look in again when I get home tonight. Good luck!

I'm already on board and cranking. Not waiting for the party to start
Extract the contents someplace or install it to \NPLB
Make a dir NPLB - edit the config file
Make a dir NPLB2 - copy contents of NPLB to it
Make a dir NPLB3 - copy contents of NPLB to it
Make a dir NPLB4 - copy contents of NPLB to it
@echo off
cd \NPLB
start llrnet
cd \NPLB2

cd \NPLB4

15 mins. A stats update will follow shortly...
Primes all over the place!!!
How the heck did they miss so many?
Stats goodness: http://www.rieselprime.org/nplb/NPLB_Scoring.htm
Sometimes primes are miss, this case a few k's are being double-check, that's why you have the confirmed primes, other's k's have never been tested. Sometimes people just start searching for big primes and leave the lower ranges to process, they start at a higher n, it's like starting one thing from the middle and not from the beginning...so many variables.
After cleaning 2nd goal, I'll put Top 5000 candidates into the server but I'll put my machines manually on 3rd goal.Detailed Search Information:
At first there are three different ranges for 400 < k < 1001 for searching with the following conditions:
* 333200 < n < 600000 to find many Top-5000 primes as possible (Forum Team Drive #1)
* 320000 < n < 333200 to fill the n = 20k (320k to 340k) chunk for reporting primes to PrimeSearch (Forum Team Drive #2)
* 260000 < n < 320000 to fill the lowest untested range at PrimeSearch (Forum Team Drive #2)
The whole range from n = 260000 to 600000 was presieved up to p = 5 T).

Thanks Beyond for joining us.

Then when it is down to just that one WU, stop the client.
Add this line to the config file and save it
once = 1
Start the client one last time and it will finish the last WU, upload the result and terminate.

Thanks, Mr. Bits!
You're all right. I take back half the bad things I said about you.

Is it possible to create a dedicated sub forum for NPLB (No Prime Left Behind Project) project?
I already added a few Top 5000 candidates and soon I'll need to post a few threads explaining how to submit primes, how the score system works, how to set up the LLRNet client, etc...

We are almost in the Top 5000 territory (n>349.2K) within LLRnet server. In this case all primes must be submitted to top-5000 prime:
Soon my strategy will be different, in case you miss the prime from your machines I'll send you a PM warning you to submit the prime and I won't post here the prime until Top 5000 confirms it as a prime number. Any doubts?Instructions for submitting a top-5000 prime:
Go to http://primes.utm.edu/primes/home.php.
Step 1: For people who have not submitted top-5000 primes previously, create a prover account:
1. Select 'Submit' on the lower left side under 'Join in'.
2. Select the 'click here to create a prover-account' link in the middle of the page.
3. Fill out the form and submit it. You will be assigned a prover account.
Step 2: Create a proof code:
1. Go to the home page in the link above and select 'Index' on the left side under 'Provers'.
2. Next to 'search prover-accounts', type yours and press enter.
3. Click on your prover account (there may be one or several) and press enter.
4. Towards the bottom, click on 'Create a New Proof-Code' and press enter.
5. If necessary in the little pop-up box, type in your user name (prover account) and password and press enter.
6. You should now have a list of proof programs. Select LLR.
7. In the space below all the programs, type in 'PrimeSearch' for the project and 'Srsieve' for the sieving software. Separate each selection by a comma. (Obviously if you did an individual-k search on your own, then the software may vary.)
8. You should now have a new proof code and can submit the prime. Example...L442.
Step 3: Submit the prime:
1. Go to the home page in the link above and select 'Index' on the left side under 'Provers'.
2. Next to 'search proof-code', type your new code from step 2 and press enter.
3. Towards the bottom, next to 'Submit primes using this code as', click on your name (prover account) and press enter.
4. If necessary in the little pop-up box, type in your user name (prover account) and password and press enter.
5. You should see a big free-form box. Type in your prime (no spaces needed) and click 'Press here to submit these prime(s)'.
6. A verification screen will come up. If the prime is correct, click 'Press here to complete submission'.

We are now testing top 5000 candidates, stay alert!
Stats were updated.
IronBits found the first Top 5000 LLRnet prime. Please check your PM with instructions on how to submit the prime.
