SETI Tutorial

I have created a SETI installation guide for all of you who have reservations on how to get hold of the SETI program and join the ATS team. I hope that with this you will be able to join up and put ATS�s figures through the roof!

Anybody with any questions please feel free to U2U me

Hi DJDOHBOY!!

Very many thanx for undertaking this task on behalf of the team my friend!! It is fantastic and I'm sure will be of tremendous benefit to those people who ask - quite regualrly - how they can download, install and subsequently run SETI@home!!

I know you are a member of the ATS SETI@hometeam yourself, DJDOHBOY, so *please* accept our heartfelt thanx for the tremendous job you've done - and to Seekerof, who originally suggested that *you* would be the ideal person to undertake it!! He was right, of course!!

GREAT job DJDOHBOY !!

Hi DJ!!

Is the "missing" page this - Preferences? This is accessed by "right clicking" on the S@h icon that is in the "sys tray" incidentally and clicking "Preferences". My connection is "Ask", as, although I have cable modem, I use SETI Monitor to cache results and connect at times to suit me.




Hope that helps?? G ;^))

Hi nwscc!!

I'm afraid I've got no experience on running Linux, let alone SETI@home with this O/S - sorry

I think, in the past, Bob88 has used Linux, so perhaps you could U2U him to check?

Sorry I haven't got any answers nwscc - good luck with your search

DJDOHBOYm your a life saver! Thank youuuu

I'm am reading as much about the SETI thing before installing it...I'm just scared I'll do something wrong and I'll then Have to format my whole PC

Hi PSGC!!

That made me laugh out loud really!! Do not be afraid of SETI@home, it is a pussy cat of a program!! Seriously, if you have any problems, please ask - between us, we can usually find a work around!! Thanx for running SETI@home and we look forward to you race up the team lists!!

Tutorial's coming up as a 404 for me. Any idea why?

DJDOHBOY probably removed it as it would be out of date now (so I think I'll un-sticky this thread).
The classic SETI@home program isn't around anymore, instead you can run SETI through a program called BOINC. If you click on the banner in my sig, you will find the page for the ATS BOINC team.
You can download BOINC from here
setiathome.berkeley.edu...
installation is pretty straight forward as far as I remember, then if you want , you can click on the join button on our page to be a part of our team

Downloaded, installed, up and running, joined ATS team. Now what?

OK guys and gals I am not even close to a good computer person, and I need help urgently. I downloaded the software successfully, but I don't know how to attach a project Please help. every time I sign on it tells me to attach. What ar where do I find the stuff.

Im begging for help,
Ford Farmer

Ford..I am no expert either,I just started using boinc a couple of weeks ago,(but Im allready in the top 15 )

Anyways, the url you want to use is setiathome.berkeley.edu...

Thanks, but how do I attach the ATS SETI project? like the abovetopsecret...project?
