[ODLK1] New disk
hi,
in the next days it is planned to move the Boinc data from actual disk to another big one.
The operation will be long 2 or more hours and during that time the server will be disconnected from network.
So be sure to have the WUs you need or add backup Boinc project to use in the mean time
Thanks

[SIDock@home] BOINC client 7.16.20 solves the certificate problem for Windows
Dear all,
If you are running BOINC on a Windows computer, please update to a new version (7.16.20) of the BOINC client. The previous version stopped working recently because of an expired SSL file that prevented it from communicating with several BOINC projects, with the BOINC server, and with Science United. You can download the new version here: https://boinc.berkeley.edu/download.php
With best wishes,
Team of SiDock@home

Windows communication failure: temporary workaround
Recently, the Windows BOINC client stopped being able to communicate with some projects and with Science United. This is because of an expired entry in a file called the "certificate authority bundle".
To fix this problem, download a new version of the file and put it in the
C:/Program Files/BOINC
directory.
This is a temporary fix. We hope to release a new version of the client that won't have this problem in the future.
