1. You have to set this yourself, in BOINC\gui_rpc_auth.cfg By default the password in there is a 32 character hexadecimal number. And you shouldn't need to set it, unless you have problems with it. See this article in Trac. 2. You have to set up a file called remote_hosts.cfg on both machines. With in it on the one machine the IP address of the other and vice versa. See the Wiki for more information. |
