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.

Been working on fixing the -help “bug” that I’ve had in
my last trees, I think I nailed it now, not entirely sure, I’ll have
to do some testing. Got the new 68k cores working a small
while back, they’re awesome, hope I can release something soon.

Had a go with compiling the perproxy for AmigaOS. Let’s just
say it doesn’t compile yet and leave it at that.
The AmigaOS specific parts are what they were in the 2.005 clients,
and those that remember those days also remember that I rewrote
a lot of AmigaOS code which made the client nicer (imho). Guess
I’ll have to start moving code from the client tree (AmigaOS specific
code only of course) or rewriting those parts anew. I’ll see what I’ll
do. I’m working on it regardless…

My own domain is now fully operational and reverse name lookups
also work as they should now.

Of course I meant that NSi refused to accept my secondary DNS, not
my secondary domain. I only have one domain :)

Exchanged my 333A Celeron yesterday for a 300A, and got some cash back!
It’s running stable for me at 463.5MHz, doing 1.31MKeys/sec RC5, not too
bad.

Had another go with NSI about my own domain, stesmi.com, as they refused
to accept my secondary domain. That fixed itself and the domain is
now up and running.

I’ve looked at the -help bug, but so far I haven’t fixed it,
probably something simple. Damn, I wish it works soon, I want to
release the new clients soon…

I’ll work on fixing a few small AmigaOS bugs that’s been following
me for a few days, we’ll see how it goes.

Got my Celeron-A 333 running today! Joy Joy! 1.175Mkeys/sec to the effort.
Yes, it runs 416MHz
