I just grabbed sprime.tar.gz off the ftp site, and to my dismay, I have
run into a couple of problems:
a) When I start the new version, I keep getting "Error 2250: Server
unavailable" messages. I have "UseHTTP=1" in prime.ini, so what gives?
I switched back to v18.1.2 and it connects to entropia.com just fine.
b) When I killed mprime (v19), I realized that it had been *factoring* my
highest exponent (which was not the current one being tested), when it's
explicitly set up to do Lucas-Lehmer tests only. Is this the intended
behavior? The number that it was factoring is > 7100000, if that's
pertinent.
I can't recall if these problems were discussed on the list already during
beta-testing (out of curiosity, is there an archive of recent messages?).
Thanks in advance for any pointers or insights.
