Cheers! I know xsquareduk said that the folding wouldn't work out during the week but, I hope he can find an easy way to automate this for the weekends. Do they have 3 day weekends in the UK??:D

Guys, I'm touched, thankyou all! I expected more of the 'who the hell does he think he is, showoff n00b' type comments rather than support, just goes to show how cool Team 32 really are! :)
As I said before, this was a 1 weekend only deal to see if it worked, so I won't be flying past anyone just yet. I'm going to work on it though, see if I can perfect something that'll work full time and also on Gromacs units - with that power I should have been pulling in a lot more points than I actually did as many were doing Tinker and Genome stuff despite me using the flags. Also quite a few machines had stalled after their first WU so it wasn't a full weekends work - still not bad for a first attempt! Plus of course I didn't burn down the building or get in any trouble - I did however kill the aircon in the server room, I think the strain of all the servers on full speed ahead was too much and it expired but that could just be coincidence...
The real credit should go to guys like esau, Cjwinnit, penguininja, wheatbix etc - guys who are putting in the points day after day, week after week. Guys like Wedo and the big hitters rightfully get respect, but I am in awe of the mid table people, who only have a few rigs but squeeze everything they can out of them for the cause. You're all stars guys!
So, 91 active CPU's in a week. I'll give a prize to the first one who can top that... :)

Oh yeah, and May 26th and 27th are bank holidays over here, which means work is closed, which in turn means that becomes a 4 day weekend... and there's another 4 similar rooms I haven't touched yet... there's an interesting thought... :)

That gives you a couple of weeks to get things figured out! Hope you can get things straight by then. We appreciate all the work that it takes to set up a large number of machines like that, good work!

Even at 2-4 days a week, that is still a TON of power. Way to go!
I have one thing to say:
who the hell does he think he is, showoff n00b!?!?!?! :D
Heck no X, GREAT WORK!!!!!!! I am in awe of the 90+ cpu's and feel your pain about admining them. It's a tough job and usually complex to get the clients folding just right.
Cheers to you,
Wedo

Thanks Wedo, I know my 'collective' pales next to the likes of yours and Niks but we all have to start somewhere. I'm giving it a rest for the moment as I'm in trouble at work (for something entirely unrelated thankfully).
