I seem to have a couple of hundred hosts on my account, when in actuality I'm running it on 4 computers. I have the BOINC 5.4.11 client on my Windows computers, and 5.4.9 on my Mac. I am managing my various projects using BOINCstats BAM!, but have only experienced this problem with this project. I'm sure that this isn't helping out the database, either. Any ideas as to what's wrong?

The server version currently running here has a bug, that is what causes all the extra hosts. There should be a step by step workaround posted somewhere on the board. It involves merging all of your excess hosts and then changing the host ID in your client stat file.

Any clues as to which thread this information is in? The forum search doesn't seem to be working properly.

I seem to have curbed the flow of new hosts, but I noticed that LHC isn't accepting the new processor titles as the same like other projects... While this only causes two (nearly identical) duplicates and not hundreds, it's enough to hit the OCD spot in the back of my head.
