I've been busy lately and haven't been able to write the script I need, but if someone else wants to write it for me I'd be happy to run it at work. It needs to be able to be run from command-line and produce no output or wait for any input (it will be running from a scheduler of some sort), and needs to install multiple copies of the binaries onto a server (one copy per processor, I can hard-code that into it custom when I have the script), run the client, and then stop the client and erase the binaries again after a set time has passed. All the servers, as well as my workstation which will be doing the scheduling, are Win2K.
The idea being to have my workstation at work (which is currently folding, has been for a month or two now) install the clients onto most/all of the servers I'm responsible for at work on fridays around 7:00 PM, fold with all the server CPU power, and then remove all traces of itself from the servers sunday night/monday morning before any users try and use the servers again.
With that, at least over weekends, I can get back up to the folding levels I was at over the christmas break.
