Processor count

http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/mai ... teamnum=14 says I have 6 active machines, but I really have 7 folding away. I added passkeys to two machines when I updated the beta client and realized that I only had the passkey set for one of my machines.

Which makes me wonder if perhaps the missing machine is not recognized because of the passkey? And if so, did I just take two more away from my stats by adding the passkey to them? Is there any way to know that the passkey was properly accepted? Are results from clients with a passkey counted differently than results from clients without?

I read the passkey faq linked in another thread and it did not address this.

The passkey is completely independent from any of those stats. Having or not having or entering it wrong won't change active CPU counts.

Check the fahlog.txt files for each client, and make sure the user name and team number are exactly the same on all of them.

You're missing the "h" at the beginning of you link address.

You're 50 day cpu count is also 6. What's your hardware? Which clients are you running? It counts clients. SMP on a quad is 1 while 4 cpu clients on a quad are 4. If you alternate and run both like I do, that single box shows up as 5.

Sorry for the confusion. I went down my list upgrading all the beta smp clients and found that I was still counting one machine that I gave away over the holidays. Looks like the web page was counting better than me :oops:
