HI! I have some problems, when I change my hosts preferences to work or school. It's not working, these hosts are still working as home, of course I update them. Does anyone has the same problem? -- Get up, stand up! Don\'t give up the fight! Credits will make everybody feel high! ;-) |

It's an error in Boinc. It always uses home, no matter what you choose. You can change it manually: Exit Boinc (File, Exit). Edit client_state.xml with Notepad or some other plain text editor. Change home in the line at the end: <host_venue>home</host_venue> into school or office. |

Thanks, I edited this file, bus it seems, it's not working properly. I have work and school prefs with "not work while computer in use" turned yes. And nothing like this happen. It still have 100% load on my processor. Another bug? -- Get up, stand up! Don\'t give up the fight! Credits will make everybody feel high! ;-) |

Make sure once you've edited the file & restarted BOINC to Update, then it will download the preferences you have set. Otherwise you'll have to wait till BOINC updates itself. Grant Darwin NT |
