staff blogs

distributed.net staff keep (relatively) up-to-date logs of their activities in .plan files. These were traditionally available via finger, but we've put them on the web for easier consumption.

We’ve been told by a number of users that their dnetc clients have
failed to automatically resume RC5 after the client had received the
CSC contest closure indicator. The problem seems to affect a fair
number of machines, and it may be necessary for you to manually quit
and restart your client to get it to properly resume RC5. No other
actions should be necessary (provided your client has already figured
out that CSC is over, by allowing it to talk to the keyservers).
