hi from spain,

i promise this is my last post. As i mentioned in another post
http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/forum_thread.php?id=6536
i removed boinc from my computer in the wrong way. Instead of going to the projects tab and select suspend the project i went to the tasks tab and select abort. But what it worst, before uninstall in a stupid way boinc, i didn\'t update boinc nor detach boinc from the project. This is the result: now the computer i did not want to use boinc (because i\'m running two virtual machines on it) is assigned to my user account and have also two tasks assigned to it. The other pc is also assigned to my user account (no problem), the wrong one has computer id of 959367, it\'s hostname is \"workstation\", their tasks are 8515393 and 8515390. Can i re-assign the tasks to the computer i want to run boinc, with hostname \"server2\"? can i removed \"workstation\" from the project? Do i own you a drink for beeing such a heavy user? no problem, visit Barcelona...
thanks...

At the bottom of this \'Read Me\' section are instructions for moving work from one computer to another.

It is not possible to remove computers from your account (unless one can be merged with another instance of the same machine). Work is assigned and linked to particular machines, even if moved off to another machine.

Good luck with it.
