Is it possible for me to use the same login for two different computers? Yes it is. When the agent runs for the first time there is a checkbox on top to indicate you are already a member. When you check that, you'll just need to provide your ID and password. When you log into the World Community Grid website Member Area, you'll see both computers listed under your ID. - Rick Alther

Yeh just use the same Name as before. You need to identify youself with the password.
Both nodes' stats will be added to the user you let the nodes run for ;) |

I setup my home computer on the w/e, now I've just setup my work computer, but I've logged into the members area and don't see any indication that my login is being used on tow computers. Thanks! P.S. How does the system know *not* to download the same information for processing to both computers? Right now it looks like (this is just a hunch) both my computers are chewing on the same same info - it's just a question of which finishes first and posts the info back. |

Both computers will be listed as devices within your device profile.
Each device is assigned a single protein data set. They may look the same on the screen, however they will undoubteldy have a different combination of seqeunce data. |
