 In the top menu of the BOINCmgr...  "Advanced --> Select Computer" you get a "Host name" box which if you have used has a drop down menu of prior entries.  Very handy, thank you.  I've searched high and low and can NOT find where that list of previously entered (remote) hostnames is stored.  I want to edit out some bad entries that look almost like a couple of the entries I access daily.  In a Debian world I would've expected it to be in /etc/boinc-client but I don't find it there or in /var/lib/boinc-client.  Any ideas? - da shu @ HeliOS, "A child's exposure to technology should never be predicated on an ability to afford it." |

 [quote Hate to nit pick but it's not in /home it's in ~/ which is short for /home/<username>/. [/quote] Grrr... I'm an idiot. I can only claim sleep deprivation and a bunch of unruly, rude 7 year olds at work. Kathryn :o) |
