As for XGrid, I was able to create a custom plug-in linking my CP directory, but XGrid's tach appeared to only use my Mac. After reading the text file created, there was mention of "permissions denied". I think the other nodes were denied somehow. (I'm a novice when it comes to XGrid, Terminal commands and such). Thanks again.
2) Questions and Answers : Macintosh : Using XGrid (Message 4532) Posted 23 Sep 2004 by old_user19854 Post: Is there a way to run this using XGrid? I have it running using Terminal okay. Also is there a way to run SETIBOINC at the same time either in terminal mode or XGrid? I am running OSX 10.3.5 on a G5 Dual 2GHz. Thanks!
