= Client Setup Logic for 6.0 Clients =

[[T(VersionSix)]]

Major differences from version 5 are:
 * Implements account-based sandboxing by creating unprivileged accounts for BOINC.
 * It moves the BOINC data directory if needed, and BOINC executables are in a separate directory.
 * User no longer selects install type.

This document describes the various changes to the installer including:
 * User Accounts and Groups
 * Data Directory
 * Executables Directory
 * User Interface Changes
 * Custom Action Changes

== User Accounts ==

Two user accounts will be created, one to execute boinc.exe, and one that boinc.exe can use to launch science applications.

NOTE: Including the computer name avoids name collisions when BOINC is installed on domain controllers.

Users:

{{{
boinc_<ComputerName>
boinc_project_<ComputerName>
}}}

Both `boinc_<ComputerName>` and `boinc_project_<ComputerName>` will be setup so that their passwords never expire.

A file will be created by the installer in the BOINC data directory called client_init.xml which contains the username and base64 encoded password for `boinc_project_<ComputerName>`. The first time the client starts up after install it will read the file and store an encrypted form of the data in a new file using !CryptProtectData/CryptUnprotectData. After reading in the client_init.xml file it will be deleted.

Each time an installation occurs, both of the account passwords will be reset and a new randomly generated password will be used.

Groups:

{{{
boinc_administrators
boinc_project
}}}

Each group will contain the following members:

|| boinc_administrators  || Administrator [[BR]] <Installing User> [[BR]] `boinc_<ComputerName>` ||
|| boinc_project || `boinc_project_<ComputerName>` ||

== Data Directory ==

All data, configuration files, and logs will be moved to the following default location:
{{{
Vista:
C:\Users\All Users\BOINC

2000/XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\BOINC
}}}

Under BOINC there will be a 'projects' and 'slots' directory.

Directories will have the following permissions:

|| BOINC          || SYSTEM (Full Control) [[BR]] Administrators (Full Control) [[BR]] boinc_administrators (Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write) [[BR]] boinc_projects (Deny All) ||
|| BOINC\projects || SYSTEM (Full Control) [[BR]] Administrators (Full Control) [[BR]] boinc_administrators (Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write) [[BR]] boinc_projects (Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write) ||
|| BOINC\slots    || SYSTEM (Full Control) [[BR]] Administrators (Full Control) [[BR]] boinc_administrators (Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write) [[BR]] boinc_projects (Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write) ||

Notes: What to do if an organization has disabled the 'Bypass Traverse Checking' user right for Everyone? See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/823659 for more details.

== Executables Directory ==

Same location as the previous releases.

{{{
C:\Program Files\BOINC
}}}

Directory will have the following permissions:

|| BOINC          || SYSTEM (Full Control) [[BR]] Administrators (Full Control) [[BR]] boinc_administrators (Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write) [[BR]] boinc_projects (Deny All) ||

== User Interface ==

Two radio buttons, graphics compatible installation and secure installation, will be displayed with the secure installation being the default.

The advanced configuration button will be disabled if the graphics compatible installation is selected.
