If I want to install LHC on other computers on my LAN, can I use the same Project URL and Account key? |

Many thanks. It's time to start using my two sons idle CPUs. EDIT: I guess 3 more will be better. |

Yes. I cut and pasted the url and password provided by LHC into a little text file. Then sent that file to the desktop of the other computers on my network. Went to each machine, downloaded the boinc software from the LHC site, opened the text file, copy and pasted the url and PW and away it goes. |

Then copy the account*.xml file generated by that to all the other computers. John Keck -- BOINCing since 2002/12/08 -- |
