I have set different values for the number of WU's Boinc should download per type (home/work/school). Also, I set my computers to use one of these types, since they don't all need the same number of WU's in the queue. E.g. my server should have quite a lot in the queue, since it is always on, while my desktop computer (which is used only for several hours a day) should only keep a few in the queue. The problem is that the settings for work/home/school aren't used by Boinc. They all use the General preferences instead of the specific values I set. What am I doing wrong? or Is Boinc using the wrong preferences? or Is Seti not giving the correct preferences to Boinc? --------- AniWay, a Dutch magazine about anime & manga |
