It was my natural impulse, but it's on a machine where the user is blissfully unaware of BOINC's presence, so I have to wait for the right moment to restart the machine...

You could try giving it a kick from there, like another project or something. Best bet is to get access somehow or ask the person to do it. How do you know they are suspended due to benchmarks? Normally if you know that(remote connection to boinc) you can control boinc itself. Team mauisun.org ID: 44763 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
