[QUOTE=jasonp;455997]Oh, one more thing: I am not at all convinced that Msieve can successfully complete a GNFS factorization if the leading algebraic coefficient is negative. It may require just a little tweak in the NFS square root, but I don't think anyone has ever tried it.[/QUOTE]
Well, I tried it once. And you are right, Msieve aborts at -nc3 (square root) step. The manual workaround is simple: edit *.fb file changing all c[0-6] coefficients to their opposites and rerun the -nc3 step. It works like a charm.

So CADO builds without issue. Upon running
[CODE]sudo ./cado-nfs.py 90377629292003121684002147101760858109247336549001090677693 -t 2[/CODE]

I get [CODE]socket.gaierror: [Errno -2] Name or service not known[/CODE]

Thoughts on diagnosing this one?

1) remove "sudo" from the command line above
2) check that you are in the folder with cado-nfs.py
3) what version of python is installed on your machine now? (apparently it's a python error)
4) please tell me that you are on the actual Linux machine, or at least in the Virtual Box, not in cygwin or some emulator like this (I doubt you are in cygwin, etc., I predict CADO would never compile there)
5) let me know of any progress/non-progress, I'll dig dipper then

1) I've done the same command with and without "sudo". Same error either way.
2) Definitely in the right folder, as everything starts up:
[CODE]Info:root: Using default parameter file ./parameters/factor/params.c60

[B]Info:Server Launcher: Not adding BEN-PC to whitelist (cannot be resolved), clients will only be allowed to connect on 127.0.0.1[/B][/CODE]

That last line is where I think the actual problem is.

3) I have Python 2.7.6 and 3.4.3. The Python3 was correctly identified during the make process, so I'm assuming that's not the problem.

4) I'm in the Ubuntu Bash shell that can be enabled with Windows 10. As noted before, it seems to be essentially a proper Ubuntu kernel, minus the graphical stuff.

5) I haven't done much of anything else yet, but I'll post as I figure out more.

@wombatman
Let's try some more:
1) Which CADO did you download and install?
2) Maybe it's permissions problem? If you say "sudo su" in your shell, will it ask you for password? Do you know the superuser password? (the password provided at Ubuntu installation, but you never installed Ubuntu, right?)

1) Did the git clone as instructed.
2) "sudo su" gives
[CODE]wombat@BEN-PC:~/CADO/cado-nfs$ sudo su
sudo: unable to resolve host BEN-PC
[sudo] password for wombat:

So I think that's the problem. I'll have another look at it tomorrow.

Ok. Got one problem fixed but still have another. By adding my machine name to /etc/hosts as 127.0.0.1, I can get CADO to run. Using
[CODE]./cado-nfs.py 90377629292003121684002147101760858109247336549001090677693 -t 1[/CODE]

So everything related to polynomial selection works fine, which may be plenty. In the interest of getting it all working, when I get to the Lattice Sieving section, I get the following error repeatedly:

So there's some kind of issue sending workunits back, I think. Max, have you done an full factorization with CADO, or just polynomial selection?

Here are the best poly I have found in the 15M to 16M interval. play with them as much as you want with cado.
As reported earlier, best is 1.425, second best is

I performed many (small, up to 110 digits) full factorizations in CADO and never had any issues. But I always did it in VirtualBox or actual Ubuntu 12.04 or 16.04 installation. I never used Windows 10 shell. I advise to download a smaller 64 bit Ubuntu 12.04 VirtualBox image from here [url]http://www.osboxes.org/ubuntu/[/url] (the link at the very bottom of the page) and try CADO there. It should work, it worked for me on two very different machines. After that you can create an actual Ubuntu partition and get extra 25% speedup. It's all automated now, I'll look up the name of the program for you, you'll download a different Ubuntu image and it will install it from the USB, and create a boot up menu with Win 10 and Ubuntu 16.04 options.
Dealing with permissions is always tricky when it's not in actual Unix/Linux.
Keep me posted.
