~/BOINC$ ./boinc -attach_project http://distrib-fact.homelinux.org/distrib-fact/

gives :

Unknown option: http://distrib-fact.homelinux.org/distrib-fact/
Usage: ./boinc [options]
-help show options

etc...

I have no mouse so can't use the manager any suggestions what I'm doing wrong ?

Cheers

Try

./boinc --attach_project "http://distrib-fact.homelinux.org/distrib-fact/"

I think, double minus it is optional but who knows

Depending on your IFS the shell might split the URL argument if it's without quotes

(I know, old entry, but maybe still needed)

Isn't the correct command
./boinc_cmd --project_attach [url] [auth]
CIC1=CC=C(C2=N[C@@H](CC(OC(C)(C)C)=O)C3=NN=C(C)N3C4=C2C(C)=C(C)S4)C=C1
