Introduce the use of a "pre-shared secret" to generate an "authentication hash" instead of a "security hash" generated with an algorithm which cannot be openly published.

So I am using the proxy and have it set to P-1 but I am getting LL-P1.
Is there a way (other than manually assignments) to set the work type in proxy to DC-P1?

Thx

Check that the worker windows are set to ask for p-1 work, rather than depending on the work type set on the primenet site, or for the computer in general.

Prime95/mprime/PrimeNet doesn't have a worktype defined for DC P-1.

If you would like DC P-1 assignments rather than LL P-1 assignments, please let me know.

I knew Primenet didn't; I just didn't want to assume one way of the other for GPU72.

If you are asking if I want the feature: YES
If you are asking if I want assignments: YES, but do you have to do it or is there a way I can (i.e. manually)?
How do others (how does anyone) get them?

So you do have a choice to select these manually...but they are assigned as N/A...curious!!??

(Sorry for my lurking. I decided to spend some time "AFK" (at least, dealing with humans -- still screaming at several of my machines)...)

For DiamondDave, who's the main DC P-1 worker (and with his permission and knowledge), I added a specific conditional for his UID in the proxy such that when his machines asked for LL P-1 work, he would instead be assigned DC P-1.

This could also be enabled for you (or anyone). But I think it would be better to simply leave things as they are for the moment, and when I'm able to sleep again (Real Soon Now) I'll provide DC P-1 as an overriding option to each GPU72 Worker's Machine settings.

Edit: DC P-1 assignments are issued a "virtual" AID. As in, they appear in the GPU72 assignment report with last updated and estimated completion dates, but not on Primenet.

Would could ever have imagined how complex GPU to 72 would become.

No big deal for me. Just 1 small PC dabbling in it

I see that I've misconfigured the spider fetcher twice in 2 days now for different purposes. The first was simply me making a stupid mistake, but this second misconfiguration this morning led to some curious results. I don't know if it is a bug or an undocumented feature.

Specifically, I told it to fetch the lowest number (Option 3) in the range 0 to 100000000 with a pledge level of 70 (felt like doing a little dc work).

The first big surprise was that I got numbers in the 63M range, not the 31M range I was expecting. The second big surprise was that they were not to 70... they were to 71. I went and doublechecked the pledge level and it is certainly set to 70. But rather than tell me there weren't any it went to 71 instead.

Why?

1. The DCTF and LLTF interfaces are at different URLs. If you want DCTF work, you need to change the URL.

2. The minimum pledge for LLTF is 71. If it's less than that, it is set to 71.
