Machine ID

If i have 2 separate computers folding, both running an SMP and a GPU client each, do I need different machine ID's for each client or is it ok to have 1 and 2 ID on each machine?

Machine ID is only relevant on each machine.

So yeah you can have two machines with ID's 1 and 2 on each

Thanks mate, thought so but some of the clients are struggling to send results, taking 10 or 12 trys or more to be succesful. Wondered if the machine ID might be the reason. The servers are probably busy or something.

See the 'Folding issues tonight' thread. Stanford had a power cut that took out a load of the servers and they're not all back on-line yet.
