Oops, I blew it. I mentioned a few days ago that we are having trouble with version 18 factoring clients grabbing exponents and not processing them. Scott is working on a server fix. In the meantime, I've been locating these exponents and putting them back in the pool. Last night, I erred and freed up the wrong set of exponents (I reran a macro that was a few days old rather than running the new macro). There is no way for me to undo the damage I have done. Sorry. To avoid duplicate work, check your worktodo.ini file for assignments above 20,540,000. Then look at your individual account report. If the exponent appears in your worktodo.ini file and not in your individual account report, then delete it from your worktodo.ini file. _________________________________________________________________________ Unsubscribe & list info -- http://www.ndatech.com/mersenne/signup.htm Mersenne Prime FAQ -- http://www.tasam.com/~lrwiman/FAQ-mers
