Is it possible to have two computers running under one name? Is there something special I have to do to do this? I've tried it before, but it renamed one of them to -1

[edit] Is this related to distributed computing projects?

There isn't anything special you have to do.
Example,
User name: KompresZor
Team: 39070
Machine ID: 1

It should be set up the same on every comp you run, unless you run two instances of F@H on one machine. Like if you have a dual processor board or are runing HT then you would have to change the machine ID to 2 on one instance of F@H.

It seems there used to be a problem with using the same username on two pc's that have the same public ip, according to the FAQ, this is not a problem on their latest verions.

I have my laptop & my pc hooked into my router, then to my modem, and to my cable connect.
They both have the same username/team, and it recognizes that I'm running them both.
So, no issues here.

Same here no problems even have a friend who runs it for me once in awhile and it works that way too.

You talk about using two clients on one computer if you have HT... I have HT, is it more efficient to run two clients at once? How the heck does that work?

Everything you need is in the sticky ... read this and post any questions about it there.
