Hi,
I make sure they have different data directories, but I do not know how 
to change the device name which the project sees. It seems to me like 
something that would be discouraged/prevented.
If I attach the boincs, running on the same host, to different projects, 
then it would not complain right?

Cheers,
Rod.
