Just got my uptime client working. Pretty strange that a 10 day uptime puts me at the number 12 spot for neowinners. ;)

Moving on up ^_^

Thanx! There's a lot of automation still to come, tho.

I give up!

All I get is this message when I try to start the client: Could not resolve hostname: Success :(

The documentation for this project is in german (sadly), so I don`t find a sollution to my problem.

To bad as I could have helped Neowin out with my 55++days uptime!

That's the exact same problem I had when I tried to install it on another one of my Linux boxes. Couldn't find a solution either unfortunately.

Maybe someone could start a simular project in English so the rest of the world could join in?

I don`t understand much german and the Babel Fish translation is just horrible and slow. :no:

what is there to understand? just register, download the client, and then load the client.

Yep it's easy for the Windows versions but some users are coming up short on trying to get the Linux versions going :(

(Solaris, no luck with that translated sticky then?)

ok, I'll test out the Linux version and write a tutorial.

[GR7]

see thats why I like windows...lol.

blah.......I was third place for like a few hours. I dont know who jumped off the league and I went up.

I switched ISPs today....and my dad asked me to change the router location so he could get a better reception......im glad i didnt have to shut down my server while changing cables and stuff.

well.....back to fourth :crazy:

[darkmark327]

I have to reinstall windows tomorrow when my new HDs come...don't worry, I won't run the client while I'm installing all the drivers and add 30 reboots to our league (and myself)

[BxBoy]

well.....back to fourth :crazy:

looks like you're 3rd now.. Zio-ND just came and left. :p

[GR7]

lol. Why'd he leave?

hey Bx, you said you were going to add some tutorial or explain how to host our own images...when can we see that?? :D

plus if you could tell me how to use the top-5 script on another image....or if i could host it on my server so i could change the image....that'd be great.

[BxBoy]

HeHe.. forgot all about that..

EDIT/UPDATE: HERE

still working on the "Top 5" script..

[darkmark327]

looks like you're 3rd now.. Zio-ND just came and left.?:pp

That's very weird...wonder where he went.

Especially since it says he's still in it

http://www.uptime-project.net/page.php?pag...ofile&uid=12397

I wonder if you're removed from the toplist if you don't update in a while...he hasn't updated since 1/5

yeah, that could be it.. it shows it as a dash -

The translation sticky was some helpful, it says how to install, configure and start the client. But I tried to seach the uptime forum for the error message I got, but no match. So I am stuck!! :crazy:

I got the setup right, because I set it up for a friend of mine and it`s working great on his machine!

Ok guys i installed it on a linux server when you untar the package tehre is an easy install file in english

[beh]

anyone kno how I can grab my servers uptime on the network? it has no moniter and stuff and i dont wanna move it.  its got 625 days uptime.  I gotta make us first, but how? err.  i tried accesing remotely, didn't work

If you are running linux and you have remote ssh enable get the program called putty remotely connect to it from another comp on the network send the package to that comp using ftp or something and then untar the package, view the install file, and install it remotely. Exactly what i did, becuase my server doesnt have a monitor either because i can do everything via remote ssh

edit: and one more thing, if you constantly reboot your machine dont join. :crazy:

[GR7]

agree with beh.....even if its just for fun.....theres no point in joining if you dont have it on for at least 5, 6 days without a reboot.

Why? I try, but I just can't seem to last even 5 days without someone shutting my comp down.
