So I've got a server, but it's not doing a lot yet. Let's put it to good use. Options could include:
Downloading the DMG file is a easy. Installing, via the commandline is a bit harder.
Using my new found package install skills, I installed the package.
Documentation for this software is pretty sparse, but I found the FAHClient binary in /usr/bin. No command lines or anything, just run that and it starts downloading and grinding through work units.
I didn't background the process. Instead, I kept it up so I can watch it (if I care to) running in a screen session. Screen (like tmux or other utilities) lets you connect and disconnect from a running set of terminal sessions. Nice for bouncing back and forth.
- BitCoin Mining -- I'm not going to mine much BitCoin on my own and on PC hardware.
- Webserver -- future project
- IRC host -- YES, but I'll need to get homebrew running first.
- Folding@Home -- YES, and I can do that now.
