From the [URL=http://fahwiki.net/index.php/Running_the_FAH_client_on_Linux]FAH Wiki[/URL]:

[Quote]Note: To get a FAH client to run on multi cpu machine, You must install as many FAH clients to separate directories as there are processors in Your machine and You may need to configure Your clients to use different Machine IDs (look to "Configuring the client").[/Quote]

Alright, so I have a brand new computer with a AMD 6000+ dual core CPU and thought I would start to contribute to FAH in earnest now, but I find this kind of offputting. Is that really necessary?

I also don't know about this, from the same page:

[Quote]Only bad thing is that there is no easy (as easy as pressing [CRTL+C]) way to stop this client anymore.
As FAH will start up several processes then there is nothing else to do than hunt down and kill these processes. To make our life a little easier FAH client will die if the running cores die (should be a rule but not always...):[/Quote]

So let's assume that I actually manage to set up and configure two separate FAH clients. How do I 'hunt down and kill' all of those processes for the separate cleints? Specifically, without losing any of the work the clients have done but not uploaded yet up to that point?


Bonus question: I installed the BOINC manager version 5.10.45 via the Ubuntu package manager. Is that still good enough or should I manually doanload and install the manager from your site instead?
