    Project to Sneakernet?

    I have a box that runs 24/7 and it is having issues getting on the internet right now. I can't be bothered to look into it right now, which leads me to my question. Is there any project (preferably scientific) that is easy to sneakernet? It will be no trouble to copy files back and forth through the LAN, to a computer with with internet access. I tried searching the forums but I didn't really find anything conclusive that has been posted recently.

    Just try DPAD.

    Download page:

    http://www.stephenbrooks.org/muon1/

    Windows Client:

    http://www.stephenbrooks.org/muon1/v442c.rar

    Setup the client:

    1º - Extract the files into a folder (offline machine)
    2º - Create a user.txt file with notepad and add the following line:

    nickname[Free-DC.org]

    3º - Open config.txt and setup the client options.

    Resolution (XxY or 'auto'): auto
    Priority for background running ([N]ormal, [L]ow, [B]ackground): B
    Threads (number or 'auto'): auto
    Auto-send results ([Y]es, [N]o): N
    Auto-save interval (seconds; 0 for no save): 240
    Rechecks for best-so-far results (min. 5): 5
    Use passive (PASV) mode for FTP transfers: N
    Download sample results file after a number of days (0=don't): 3
    Sample file URL: http://stephenbrooks.org/muon1/samplefiles/{lattice}_100.txt
    FTP command call: ftp -s:script.ftp
    Update lattice files from web every N hours (0=don't): 12
    Use old FTP calling method (as pre-v4.34; can hang, but more compatible with ZoneAlarm): N
    TrialType ratios: Mutate=3;Crossover=3;Interpolate=3;Extrapolate=3;MuSpherical=3;MuOne=3;Extreme=1;LocalGrad=3;TopoSmo oth=2;
    Particles per extra thread (limits threading overhead): 100

    4º - Run the client using muon1_cmdline.bat or muon1_background.exe. First one will run it under a DOS box and the last one hidden, check taskmanager.

    5º - If you have auto-send results off you have to send them manually using manualsend.bat.
    The results are recorded in a file called results.txt.

    6ª - You want to run the client in offline mode, right? Well, make a second installation in one machine with internet access and use it to send the results. Just move results.txt file to it and send it to DPAD servers. Simple!

    7º - Stats pages:

    http://www.stephenbrooks.org/muon1/?hide=1&teams=1
    http://stats.free-dc.org/new/teamsta...am=Free-DC.org
    http://dpad.tastats.com/team_stats.php

    8º - Have fun!

    Hope everything is clear,

    Carlos
