Hi StyM,
----------------------------------------though WCG has quite a few identifiers in the database for Linux, to send the correct work, 'amd64-portbld-freebsd' seems not. Look for posts with FreeBSD in it on how to modify that identifier, which the BOINC servers check every time the machine communicates. If you advise your Computer ID, we can inform the technicians to see if yours can be added to the valid platforms. It's important as under the so-called ''Homogeneous Redundancy', it needs to be ensured that work is send to the same family of operating systems so that the results returned will be equal from all computers in a quorum. cheers
WCG

The platform amd64-portbld-freebsd will now be sent the Linux binaries. Please make sure that you have Linux compatibility mode enabled.
also - please confirm in this thread that it worked correctly. thanks, Kevin |

Try looking at this thread:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-amd64/2006-May/008235.html And see if that can make a difference. |
