Hi all,

I want to verify the installation to see if BOINC is running as daemon, following steps in http://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/Installing_BOINC_on_Fedora with user account but cannot see boinc_client --daemon in that list. I repeat steps above again but it doesn't work. Could anyone please help? Thanks.

What happens if you run `ps aux | grep boinc` in a terminal?

eg:

[kathryn@Nova ~]$ ps aux | grep boinc
