DNET INI File Parameters

[Ototero]

I'm running the old fashion version of Dnet.
I remember from years ago there was a parameter you could enter into the dnetc.ini file to restrict the number of OGR and RC5 units.
Does anyone know what it is?

My guess is that AMDave will have the answer..........

Not sure if you mean project_priority or the fetch_work_unit_threshhold
probably the latter
here's an old example that runs ORG only with a cap of 10 WUs at a time (iirc)
----snip-------------------------
[parameters]
id=xxxxxx@xxxxx.xxx

[misc]
project-priority=RC5-72=0,OGR-P2

[display]
progress-indicator=auto-sense

[ogr_p2]
fetch-workunit-threshold=10
--------------------------------- snip-------------------------------

normally you would set these params through the config menu

distributed.net client configuration: Buffer and Buffer Update Options
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Buffer in memory only? (no disk I/O) ==> no
2) In-Buffer Filename Prefix ==> buff-in
3) Out-Buffer Filename Prefix ==> buff-out
4) Checkpoint Filename ==>
5) Disable buffer updates from/to a keyserver ==> no
6) Keyserver<->client connectivity options
7) Disable buffer updates from/to remote buffers ==> no
8) Remote buffer directory ==>
9) Load-work precedence ==> OGR,RC5-72=0
10) Additional buffer-level checking ==> 0 (none)
11) Buffer-level check interval ==> 0:00 (on buffer change)
12) Fetch work threshold ==> OGR=0,RC5-72=0
13) Fetch time threshold (in hours) ==> RC5-72=0

0) Return to main menu

option 9 is the key to running ogr only. you need to set the rc5-72=0
option 12 is where you would set the work limit

Thanks Dave,

That's the little bugger I wanted. It was defaulting to 50 and taking too long.
