	I got registered to the BOINC just yesterday. I'm wondeing if I can run the BOINC application on 2 PC's using the same account. One of the PC's would run at work and the other at home, so they will have 2 different IP addresses.

	No problem for this. Settings are in "Your account", preferences, general. Greetings from Belgium. Help Desk: use "Most recent answer first" sorting.

	BOINC will run fine on multiple computers. Just use the same URL and authenticator to attach to all of them. A quicker and easier way is to copy the account*.xml file(s) from a working computer to the new computer. This avoids any typo problems and also allows you to get set up even if the project(s) are down or running a different major version. John Keck -- BOINCing since 2002/12/08 --
