Hi all, I've got several linux boxes running the command line version of boinc/seti. I usually ssh into them, cd to the machine's dedicated dir and do any admin using the boinc_cmd tool. All that's fine but I'd like to do this without having to ssh. So I tried the line: ./boinc_cmd --host <host name or IP address> --passwd <strong key> --get_state but I get the following error. connect: Connection refused can't connect to <host name> Do I have to open ports or some such? Is there an alternative that I haven't thought of? Thanks in advance, Padraig PS: Sorry if this was covered already, but can't find it. |

I'm not quite sure, but perhaps the remote controlling mechanism with gui_rpc_auth.cfg and remote_hosts.cfg is used here too. See Controlling BOINC remotely in the BOINC wiki.

On the Client machines have you set --allow_remote_gui_rpc? Or are you using .cfg files to control the lists of hosts that can connect remotely? Let us know, we'll try our best to help you further!!!

It's easy when you know how! Thanks guys, that web page is what I was looking for. Problem solved. Added the remote_host.cfg, restarted and presto. |
