1) Questions and Answers : Getting started : how can I add a new host to the same account? (Message 26683)

Dear all,

I am trying to add another computer to my project. I downloaded the boinc software, installed it to my new linux box. Both computers belong to my home network, with the same external IP address. When I issue the ./boinc -add_project http://climateprediction.net key (I presume this is my user number) it returns \"invalid or missing account key. Visit this project\'s web site to get an account key.\" Where can I find my account key, if it is something different than my user no?
Thanks
2) Questions and Answers : Unix/Linux : How do I run BOINC without a parent terminal? (Message 23455)

Post:

nohup ./BOINC_BIN >/dev/null 2>&1 &

Thanks,
This worked excellently. May I ask two questions though?

  • I read about nohup command but could not understand the argument you used. Would you be so kind to explain what \">/dev/null 2>&1\" argument does?
  • Is there a way that I can start the client this way with liest processor priority (nice +19)?


Thanks again in advance.

Hi,

This is nothing critical, I just dont like to keep the terminal window open in X.

I tried the command \"sh run_client &\" but it doesn\'t seem to have the effect. When I close the terminal window in X or log off from the tty that I started the process, the client exits. Is there another way to do this?

Thanks,

hako
