BOINCview: Networked drives?

[Morpheus]

Can't get BOINCvew to access networked folder-- any ideas?

They are shared and accesssible through the My Computer icon...

Crunch on!

Are the shares accessable through "My Network Places"? If so, BoincView should list them there if it's not listing your network drive.

Thanks, now I have them listed; but they are still not being recognized by BOINCview...

Try the RPC option instead.

Tried RPC... no avail... maybe it is because they are Windows 98 machines... ???????

numbnuts... that's me!

I REALLY, REALLY hate networking and have avoided it at all costs... which just bit me in the @$$...

I did get the RPC enabled on the Win98 systems, then had to remember/learn how to find ISPs on my LAN--not sure I ever knew how before...

As long as I remove the -min switch from the shortcut, everything works smoothly in RPC--even with good old Win98...

THANKS for all the help!!

Crunch on!

You do have to start the client with the -allow_remote_gui_rpc option. Just add that after the quote marks in the shortcut properties for boinc.
