Yes, probably a bit odd, to want to use network computing... for network computer, but, I just got 7 new blade servers (two or three of which I will keep) that I can add into my server rack over time, right now I already added one in. I'm wondering if there is any method of setting up seti@home to use computers that are networked together to process the same set/group of tasks (as they seem to come in sets of 11 or so at once). It would be a good way to churn through data even faster, although running separate instances and basically going through double isn't an issue, it would just be cool to set up. |

For Seti, no there is no way to do that. It is a project set up to run single tasks on a single piece of hardware only, be it a CPU core or a GPU. BOINC on the other hand can be used in a Condor Pool. Just not at this project. |

Ah darn, oh well, I do run it through BOINC, too bad seti isn't supported yet. |
