LL and P-1 factoring will be faster. Trial factoring will be unchanged. _________________________________________________________________________ Unsubscribe & list info -- http://www.ndatech.com/mersenne/signup.htm Mersenne Prime FAQ -- http://www.tasam.com/~lrwiman/FAQ-mers ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jul 2003 18:44:27 +0100 From: Robin Stevens <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Mersenne: PrimeNet server unavailable? Anyone else having trouble reaching the PrimeNet server? Several of my clients have been unable to check in for several days, although some did manage last night. At the moment it looks as though the clients are attempting TCP port 80 connections to 66.45.51.160 (no rDNS), which fail.
