Hello, is there any way to add new PCs to youre Project without using the Logindata? I just do not want to provide my Logindata to every helping hand ;-) Unfortunately the account key works like the logindata. As a result of this it does not matter which data i give out. Everyone who helped would have the possibility to overtake my account. Thank you! Felix |

NEVER>>>>> NEVER give your account key or EMAIL ADDY and PASSWORD to anyone except "project administrators", and they won't ask for it. I'm a Boinc Helper and I won't ever ask for it either. To attach more computers: 1) After installing Boinc it will ask you to attach to a project. 2) use "existing user" option 3) enter email and password (not key) 4) you're done. It's that easy. |

Hm, to avoid this problem i would like to have something like the crossprojektid as a possibility to attach to a project. So e.g. a friend could enter this id to help me gaining credits etc. I will not give my loginadata anyone of course. cheers //add: in the case, that <I> have no physical access to the machine i want to add. (A second person has to attach the new client..) |

Hmmm, to attach other computer to YOUR account, a Email addy AND password are required. There's no way around that. What you can do is "create a team". Then have them create their own accounts and join your team. [edit]the email addy is THE unique account identifier. |

What a shame :) If you want a team I can give you one with a small amount of credit in it. I started a "test team" that I no longer need. |
