2) Message boards : Questions and problems : Failed to create the 'boinc_master' account - on an Windows Server 2003 R2 (Message 32036) Posted 8 Apr 2010 by makdel Post: I am trying to install BOINC on an Windows Server 2003 R2 that runs: File Server Application Server Mail Server & Domain Controller (Active Directory) Every time the installation fails with the same message "Failed to create the 'boinc_master' account". I tried the newest and an 6 months old version of BOINC. I found an old reference to the problem that implies Active Directory as the main suspect but no work around. If anyone can help would be appreciated. Its an quite idle 4-core new Server and i want to donate cpu usage. thanks in advance.
