Stop folding - sending in last WU

[Jimmy0]

Hi,

I am currently running two instances of the F@H client on my Q6600, but I want to stop these so I can move onto using the SMP client.

I remember reading a while back that there is a way to make it stop folding after the current WU has been completed and sent, but cannot find this information now - so can someone please remind me how to do this.

If you need to know, I am running both instances as a service and am using Vista Home Premium 64bit.

Thanks!

stop each instance with "CTRL C"

then restart with " -oneunit" flag


here's a link for general info

1. Stop and then disable the 2 F@H services.
2. In each F@H folder in Windows Explorer, create a file called "oneunit.bat" with this line (of course, if your FAH exe file is different, replace it):

FAH504-Console.exe -oneunit

3. Double click the the bat file and F@H will run in a DOS window.
4. Once the DOS window closes, that means you have finished and successfully sent the work unit, so make sure you leave the DOS window open and minimized.

Thanks guys, works fine.

Will try and setup the SMP client tomorrow, but hopefully I won't need any help for that.
