Why can't I maintain a cache of x-days worth of WUs?

I figured this out. 5.8.16 CC ignores my cache settings. 5.10.0 CC honors them. At one point 5.10.0 was available for download, but now (and when I installed the newer machines) 5.8.16 is what you get. I've copied 5.10.0 from my older machines to the newer, and now they are all working correctly. That should keep them out of weird EDF mode with overworked projects while seti can't or won't get work. You can get copies of all the old versions from the archive (including 5.10.0): http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dl/?C=N;O=A Dublin, California Team: SETI.USA ID: 629192 ·

That seems to be somewhere around the time that local preferences were added to the client code. You'll find those settings under Advanced/Preferences in the BOINC manager. ID: 629208 ·
