Does anybody know why the classic site is down? http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/ it was still up as of a few months ago i remember visiting and looking up my old teams' stats, and was recently Waybacked on August 20th 2025? https://web.archive.org/web/20250000000000*/http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/
Did a certificate expire?

So, I would put this on the Internet Archive but it keeps being taken down. https://x.com/danwat1234/status/1960502643891298730
GUI clients 1.0 thru 3.08 , CLI clients 1.3 thru 3.08. I am trying to find if there are any gaps in the find.

Thanks Mark Dorling for finding these and sending them to me!

These files are LITERALLY listed on the wayback machine. However not actually saved just download page indexed. Such as,
SETI v 2.02 ; https://web.archive.org/web/20000303000846/http://www.setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/download.html
v2.03; https://web.archive.org/web/20000304173958/http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/download.html

v2.04;
https://web.archive.org/web/20000511183936/http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/download.html

v3.0;
https://web.archive.org/web/20001206161700/http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/download.html

Also, the 20 classic SETI newsletters, also on the Wayback machine is included on the cloud links

EDIT: It's on the Internet Archive now ... their automated system is junk. https://archive.org/details/uc-berkeley-setiathome-classic_5


Please share, try to get early versions working; I cannot simply plop in a user_info.sah and work_unit.sah into the directory like I can on 3.02 GUI and 3.08 CLI. It continues to ask for log-in, perhaps format is not recognized.[/img]

As posted in the "Seti is slumbering" thread in The Lounge forum
Yes, we had another major failure. It's probably going to be down at least another week.
