Need Help Setting Up Folding@Home On Remote CentOS Server

[SuperShermanTanker]

So I have a dedicated Atom 330 server I rent out and I want to set up folding@home on it so I can have it do folding@home at night when I'm not using the server. The server is using CentOS and when I use the online tutorial on the Foding@Home site I can't figure out how to get it working. Has anyone got it working before or knows how to do it? If so I can really use the help.

Hey its me again. You can get it to work with in the terminal, but i can't seem to get it to work as a remote server. You could script this to turn on and off when you want.

is there any way to view the progress in the remote terminal and can I be able to set it to pause the progress instead of fully closing out the program?

I just wanted to ask if we can get the software installed on the server don't you need to forward the port Folding@Home uses to be able to access it from the client software? I was just wondering because that's probably why it didn't work.

You do if you want it as a client, if you don't want it as a client(you can have it login and work indepedtly), you don't need to open the port.

Do you think it will work if we set it up so I can control it through the folding at home client on my desktop?

Ok then does it allow you to set up the name and team number when it's done through the remote terminal?
