Yes!  It works!  Thanks!

OK I will add it to the list, it will take a while before I will be able to pick this up.

Thanks!

Primegrid now has apps for the Apple M1/M2 GPUs.  I have BOINCtasks set to display CPU apps in Green, and GPU apps in blue.  As you can see, the M1 GPU app is shown as green, as if BOINCtasks doesn't know that it is really a GPU app.

That sux.

Any news?

I just tried it with 1.38, and still no change.  boinctasks is running inside crossover on my mac.  Browsers on my mac cannot connect to localhost:8080, or 192.168.1.56:8080.  Is there something in the mac preferences that has to be turned on?  I looked all around sharing, and could not find anything.  And the firewall is turned off.  Or maybe there is a setting I have to use with crossover?  But I can't find anything obvious.

Heh.  As a mac user, I am running boinctasks via wine.  And I have not been able to get the webserver thing to work.  So for me an ios app is even more important.

Question:  Not able to run OSX in a VM for development?  I am not sure myself.  Never needed to try. 

I would be willing to cover the yearly fee for several years up front, if that would help.

Is there going to be boinctasks for iOS?  That would be awesome!  How real is this?  Any idea for when?

Will set it one lower, should be easier to read.

Thanks!  If the lower setting causes an increase, put it back up.  I'll manage somehow.   

Hmm.  An ssh tunnel sounds like it is beyond my abilities.  My current solution is to VNC into a remote machine, and then look at BOINCmgr running locally on that machine.  I was hoping that BoincTasks could do it in a similar fashion some how.  I tried putting in the external IP of the remote site, and the port that VNC uses, but that is not working.

FWIW, I never used BoinvView.  This is my first experience with BoincTasks.  I finally got it running on OSX.  Great tool!

P.S.  The CAPTCHA here is brutal.  9 times out of time, I cannot read the letters.  And "listen to the letters" doesn't work on OSX.

Edit:  Got it!  I had to do several things, and I am not sure if all of these are required, as I did not try them one at a time.  But this was the recipe that worked for me:

- On the remote mac, add my local external IP to the remote_host.cgf file
- On the remote router, add port 31416 to the VNC rule.  I probably could have added a separate rule too.
- In BoincTasks, I used the remote host's external IP address
- Even with all that, I could not get it to work.  So I made the gui_rpc_auth.cfg password match the system password.  That did the trick.

Weee!

I'm new here, so sorry if this was already asked/answered.

Is it possible to use BoincTasks to connect to machines over the internet?  For example:

My machine running BoincTasks in 192.168.x.x -> router -> external address 24.x.x.x -> destination external address 67.x.x.x -> router -> 10.x.x.x running BOINC

I can set the routers to pass any ports necessary.
