Mersenne: Prime95 on linux, a tech question
I'm trying to run mprime on a (test)webserver (linux/apache) with no console access. Now I can start mprime remotely through telnet - which works fine. But as soon as I quit the particular telnet-session - mprime quits too. Anybody can give me a hint how do keep mprime running? thanks in advance Unsubscribe list info -- http://www.scruz.net/~luke/signup.htm

Anybody can give me a hint how do keep mprime running? Sure.. I run mprime remotely on a server by using a simple "./mprime /dev/null " command. The " /dev/null" suppresses output and the "" makes MPrime run in the background. If you want output in a file simply replace "/dev/null" with the filename. -- Sincerely, Philip Heede Unsubscribe list info -- http://www.scruz.net/~luke/signup.htm
Mersenne: Update of web pages
Hi, and congratulations to all of you for the (probable) prime. Even though it's not 100% certain and published yet, would it be an idea to update GIMPS' and PrimeNet's web pages, with at least a note of the finding? /* Steinar */ Unsubscribe list info -- http://www.scruz.net/~luke/signup.htm
Mersenne: Second LL
Congratulations to everyone from GIMPS on the new *probable* prime, especially George! Just wondering, can you tell us when the second LL test will be finished, I'm guessing that your running it on something alittle faster than a standard PIII? ---Aaron Schauf--- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Free web-based email, anytime, anywhere!

If you want output in a file simply replace "/dev/null" with the filename. You might also want to look at the nohup and nice commands, depending on what exactly you are trying to do. If you've got root access (and the permission on the box's owner) you can also set mprime up to start when the system boots by modifying the init files in /etc/rc.d. -- Kevin Jaget (or an FDA approved generic equivalent) kcjaget at mindspring.com Unsubscribe list info -- http://www.scruz.net/~luke/signup.htm

I've been in contact with Slowinski and Gage. Cray time is a little scarce right now. However, a volunteer has started the test today running at idle priority. It will probably take 4 weeks but could be less. Ernst Mayer has also begun a verification. It too will take about 4 weeks depending on what speed hardware he can get his hands on.
