Hi all,

Is it possible to copy the Boinc configuration between different PC's to save having to setup the client again on a new machine?

I may need to do this across different OS's as well if it's possible.

Copy the account*.xml file(s) to the new computer and install to that directory. This should work on any OS providing you can get those files and the installer package to the new computer.

There is supposed to be a way to setup multiple windows machines at once using the new installer, however I do not know how to do it.
