If you don't have a direct connection, you might want to try running a copy of rc564 in a second directory with just -fetch to get the blocks, and then ftp buff-in.rc5 file to the NT box. When it's done, ftp the buff-out.rc5 file back and do an rc564 -flush. I don't know for sure that it will work, but you could try it with a small set of blocks, and if it doesn't work, run the blocks again on your freebsd box. I'm able to run the Solaris client via a firewall by telling it to talk to my firewall proxy in http mode. I can send a copy of my ini file tomorrow. I have a dual CPU P6-200, and I can do about 340 blocks/day (537472.57 keys/sec). I'm also running it on about 30-40 sparc 5's at night and all weekend. If I recall correctly, it takes about 9 sparc 5's to do as many keys as my SMP P6.
