Is your Windows "command prompt" accessible? Maybe you can view your proxy settings. Execute the following command if possible: netsh winhttp show proxy Could you be more specific about "try to send your client_state.xml to a webserver... Under Linux i would use POST on the commandline to do POST requests against any webserver for testing purposes. If you do not know what a POST request is take a look at the contact form. https://www.onenext.de/contact.html It's a form which uses the POST method also used to upload files to a webserver... If you click on the "Go" button you can still see the same address in your browser since the data will be sent "invisible" within the HTTP request itself. A GET request on the other hand would look like this: https://www.onenext.de/contact.html?name=YourName&email=you@example.com&message=YourMessage My idea: - Open port 80 and install a webserver at home - Use (install) a PHP file upload script on that server - Download cURL binaries for your machine at work cURL for Win2000/XP http://www.gknw.net/mirror/curl/win32/curl-7.21.4-ssl-sspi-zlib-static-bin-w32.zip Other versions http://curl.haxx.se/download.html If you know your proxy address you can use cURL and upload files to your home-server. For example: curl -x YOURPROXYADDR:YOURPROXYPORT -F "fileupload=@/path/to/your/client_state.xml" http://example.com/upload.php I don't want you to lose your work! And sorry but i don't use Windows... So i cannot reproduce those (OS-specific) steps :) |

"bad proxy" means that there is a proxy but it is configured for HTTP connections only? If so, you can try to send your client_state.xml to a webserver (via PHP or Perl upload) using a simple POST command. |

Hi, the requirements (Apache or lighttpd with PHP) are related to the machine from which you want to access the remote Boinc clients. Let's call it "master". Installation steps 5 and 6 applies to the remote client. The only thing you have to do on the client side is to make your client_state.xml obtainable on the network. There are several ways to achieve that: * Already installed webserver * My small Perl script (miniserv.pl) or (if you are brave enough) on a Linux machine with netpipes installed type: faucet 8080 --out --localhost 0.0.0.0 --backlog 128 cat /path/to/your/client_state.xml I've found out that the contact data provided with the installation instructions are out of date. I will fix it as soon as i can :) And maybe there is someone out there who wants to help me to improve the translation..? |

Currently not, i'm sorry :) Since english isn't my native language i'll try to use it in the changelog and there is also a file called INSTALL included with the package. It is written in english as well. Feel free to use the contact form: https://www.onenext.de/contact.html Greetings! Willy |
