Message 5628 - Posted: 9 Jul 2004, 14:08:30 UTC

I use two different computers, one at work (a laptop) that during the nights and the weekends runs also at home and one fix at home (a desktop). On both of them I loaded the new Boinc software. How can I set the two computers for working on different was? I already setted the "preferences" on my account, but I do not know how to set up the two machines, each of them for the two different settings. In other words: how can a machine knows that it is the "home" computers and use the "home" preferences or the "work" computer and use the "work" preferences?

In the preferences section on your account page, click on the Seti@Home "View/Edit" link. Then click the "Edit Seti@Home preferences" link. Change the default computer location to whatever you want, then update.
