NAME
boinc - The BOINC core client program.
SYNOPSIS
boinc [options]
DESCRIPTION
The BOINC "core client", boinc, is the heart of BOINC. It controls which project applications are run on your computer, downloading
"Workunits" and uploading the "Result" files from completed tasks. boinc is usually run in the background, ideally as a daemon. It can then
be controlled either by a graphical tool called the BOINC Manager, boincmgr(1), or a command-line tool called boinccmd(1), by means of Re-
mote Proceedure Calls (RPCs) over port 31416.
The BOINC core client can be controlled by command-line options, configuration files, and environment variables. Standard usage is simply
to start the client running in the background.
OPTIONS
These command-line options for boinc can be used to control how BOINC is started. Once the client has started, you should use a separate
program, (boincmgr(1) or boinccmd(1)) which communicates with it by means of Remote Proceedure Calls (RPCs).
--help show options
--version
show version info
--exit_when_idle
exit when there are no results
--show_projects
show attached projects
--detach_project URL
detach from a project
--reset_project URL
reset (clear) a project
--attach_project URL key
attach to a project
--update_prefs URL
contact a project to update preferences
--run_cpu_benchmarks
run the CPU benchmarks
--check_all_logins
for idle detection, check remote logins too
--allow_remote_gui_rpc
allow remote GUI RPC connections
--gui_rpc_port port
port for GUI RPCs
--redirectio
redirect stdout and stderr to log files
--dir path
use given dir as BOINC home
--no_gui_rpc
Omits creation of a socket as required for the remote control of the client. Consequently the client cannot be controlled by exter-
nal tools like GUIs (boincmgr etc.) or the console command tool (boinccmd).
--daemon
run as daemon
--exit_before_start
exit right before starting a job
--exit_after_finish
exit right after finishing a job
--insecure
disable app sandboxing
--launched_by_manager
core client was launched by Manager
--run_by_updater
set by updater
ACCESS CONTROL FOR GUI RPC
By default the core client accepts GUI RPC connections only from programs on the same host, which means that any user on this host can con-
trol the core client.
