No New Work

M0CZY · 2006-10-16, 10:14

Is there any way to request 'no new work' from the server apart from
quitting Gimps?

In prime.ini add:

NoMoreWork=1

OK thanks good buddy, I'll try that.

Putting the line NoMoreWork=1 in Prime.ini didn't work for me!
The server has just given me another exponent to do, which I didn't really
want.
Hey, never mind, I suppose I should stop moaning and just do the extra work.

Did you save your Prime.ini and restart Prime95 so it would reload the .ini?

I restart Prime 95 every time I turn on the computer.
Maybe the line should have been NoNewWork=1 or something else?

NoMoreWork=1 in prime.ini should have worked (if you restarted Prime95 before it tried to reserve a new exponent). Selecting Advanced/Quit GIMPS and answering that you want to complete the work has the same effect.
