Topic: Very specific question about a post in another section (Read 585 times)
tl;dr hello what
You know what it was? I was putting a "/" in between the .org and my weak account. Thank you for your assistance.
The exact command I use to attach is below. I cut and pasted it and only truncated my account key, so yours will be longer:
boinccmd --project_attach http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org 866848_1b
Based on your post, it should be working.
boinccmd --project_attach http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org 866848_1b
Based on your post, it should be working.
Posts talks about using DigitalOcean to mine ripple via WCG and BOINC. Problem I have is at the end where I attach the project with my weak account key. BOINC returns an error: Missing command-line argument.
Then states the usage: boinccmd [--host hostname] [--passwd passwd] command. What hostname and password is it talking about? Can someone please give me a fully spelled out example with fake weak account key and all?

For those that dont know Ripple is funded by google so here is a quick way to get some free xrp
First Sign up here for a ripple wallet: Computingforgood.com then follow the directions to get a WCG login. To fund your wallet you need to "mine" using the program called boinc.
So for those of you who want more free XRP, I would direct you to DigitalOcean:
https://www.digitalocean.com/?refcode=af8739393201
Scroll down to the bottom and put in the promocode first!

You can sign up using your e-mail, a password, a credit card number and this promo code:
(I used a gift card, to make sure it legit)
This will get you a free $10 credit, enough to open one small "droplet" for two month. But you can make 5 droplets if you want too
If the promo code expires check this site out for more:

Setting up a server on DigitalOcean is super easy. After you have signed up, you will be asked to create a droplet.
You will first enter a hostname, this can be whatever.
Then you'll select a size. I went with the smallest 1 CPU server, it will run for two months.
Select your region. I selected the one closest to home.
Then you will select the image, I would recommend Ubuntu 13.10 x 64.
Then you will create the droplet (it will take a minute.)
Your username (root) and password will be sent to your e-mail.
Once you have your password, you can connect to your server by clicking on the Access button and then by clicking Console Access. This will open a shell in your browser. Once you are in the shell, you have two commands to enter:
sudo apt-get install boinc-client
boinccmd --project_attach http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/
The URL in the above command will not be underlined when you enter the command in the shell.
Note: nothing obvious will happen when you enter the second command.
Now type the word "TOP" you should see Boinc running now... Enjoy

Also, why does bitcointalk feel the need to make we post on things I don't want to post about just so I can post where I want to post? I had a simple question for a preexisting thread and had to come here, the newbies area, to even get started. I could've, and should've, asked in that thread, where this question belongs. Seems silly. Probably has something to do with spam prevention. Most silly seeming things do.
