Hi all! In the 'Attach to Project' window of the BOINC manager pasting does not work for me. Does anyone know how to rectify this? Or is there another way to attach to a project, i.e. by command line or config file? I really don't want to retype the key. Many thanks!

Added: OK, I found the -attach_project command line option of the client. Still, I'd like to know if anyone else cannot use the paste feature.

You know, that on Unix you usually have two clipboards? It might be that the selection can be pasted with the middle mouse button, it might be that it can be pasted with Ctrl-V (or Shift+Insert). Just try out.

Another way: Use the command line.

$ cat run.sh
FTP_PROXY=http://192.168.xx.xxx:80 HTTP_PROXY=http://192.168.xx.xxx:80 ./boinc_4.19_i686-pc-linux-gnu -return_results_immediately <http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu

EOF

and start with:
nohup ./run.sh &

BTW: If you are looking for a team, I could suggest a nice one :-)))
