Date: 2013aug30 Product: Boinc OS: Linux Keywords: SETI, SETI@Home Q. How do I set a headless up SETI@home on Fedora A. Install it:

dnf install boinc-client

(For a headless setup boinc-manager isn't needed) Start the service:

systemctl start boinc-client

You need to change to the boinc user's home folder to use boinccmd

cd ~boinc

Make an account:

boinccmd --create_account http://setiathome.berkeley.edu <email> <password> '<name>'

Find your key:

boinccmd --lookup_account http://setiathome.berkeley.edu <email> <password> <key>

Use the key to attach to the project:

boinccmd --project_attach http://setiathome.berkeley.edu <key>

It should now start working, show what its doing:

boinccmd --get_tasks
