Is WCG software required to run WCG work units? BAM [RESOLVED]

I have BOINC software, and Boincstats Account Manager.
Can I run WCG work through my current software?
I have a new account at WCG and have selected by projects.
I have set my Account Manager to add WCG to my project list.
Thanks,
Charles

Re: Is WCG software required to run WCG work units?

Welcome to the club, Prawdzik.

You will have to add WCG manually to a client the first time. After, BAM can detach and re-attach. Make sure the WCG and BOINCstats member names are same, which also applies to the password.

At BAM, on the http://boincstats.com/bam/projects.php page, make sure to tick the "Attach new host by default?" box as else might detach WCG again.

Let us know

Re: Is WCG software required to run WCG work units?

How do I get WCG on the projects list at BAM?

There are currently about 5 machines attached to this BAM account but the are remote and inaccessible right now. If I manually add the project to one of those machines next time I get to it will that get WCG on my BAM project list?

Doing a "find account" returns an "invalid password" but I've double checked that this BAM account's PW == WCG PW.

Thanx
