Boinc 6.12.34 Windows XP SP3 current in updates After running Boinc with protected execution and several projects without problem for a year, in order to run the new LHC Test4Theory. I uninstalled Boinc, then reinstalled it from and admin user and had protected execution unchecked and let any use manage checked. Now, Boinc seems to run fine from the admin account. But from any other user, starting the Boinc Manager give me a message that the user is not authorized and I need to get an admin to add the user to the boinc_users group. Well, this user is already a member of that group. I have tried deleting and reinstalling, and then repairing without success. How do I fix this to allow any user to run the Boinc manager? ++PLS |
