Great! Where do I find version 5? On the website I see only versions of 6.

I am attempting to install BOINC on the PDC (GC) server. It fails to install and returns the message "Failed to create the 'boinc project' account" Cannot BOINC be installed on a domain controller? Is there a way around this?

It's more likely you close the core client when logging out. If you installed the client as service/protected mode, all users, it should continue to run.


Will give this a try, as I did not install as you suggest. Uninstalling/Installing at this moment. Thanks!

Generally, rather than closing a session I do Windows Key-L to lock the computer, but that may not be your preference.


Are you referring to the Ctrl-Alt-Del & Enter sequence? Am connecting via Remote Desktop. Will it function?

I have one server (of several) that suspends BOINC (Spinhenge) processing when I log off as a user. As long as I am logged on, processing is normal. Running Windows Server 2003 with the latest updates. Not sure if a BOINC issue or Spinhenge. Any ideas?

Do I understand correctly that BOINC is not required once a project, in this case Einstein@home, is underway. My scenario is idle classroom computers, as would rather not have the students aware of the distributed computing application, or be able to change any parameters. BOINC is on the computers, but not active, and it appears we are accumulating credits. However, I presume BOINC will be required for multiple projects?
