You can join a second and subsequent projects as follows.
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li> Visit the new project's web site and create an account.
|
|
Note: if you wish, you can use different email and name
|
|
than those of your first account.
|
|
<li> Receive an email containing an account key (a long random string).
|
|
<li> Run the BOINC client, and select the <b>Add Project</b> command.
|
|
Enter the project's URL and your account key.

<h3>Where to edit your preferences</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Your preferences are stored on BOINC servers.
|
|
When your hosts communicate with a server they get the latest preferences,
|
|
and they pass along these preferences to other servers.
|
|
Thus, when you change your preferences on one project's web site,
|
|
these changes will quickly spread to all your hosts,
|
|
and to the web sites of all the other projects in which you participate.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you change your preferences first at one project
|
|
and then at another, the second changes will overwrite the first.
|
|
To avoid this, do all your edits at one project.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Some projects may provide a web interface
|
|
for editing their project-specific preferences.
|
|
In this case it may be necessary to edit preferences at different sites.
|
|
To avoid overwriting edits,
|
|
wait until previous edits have propagated to a site
|
|
before editing preferences there.
