Odd - it works on SETI@home and my test project.
Anyone else seeing problems?

The URL is right, but there needs to be something after cpid=

Is there another url that we should use?

[boinc_dev] cert_all.php issues

[David E Kim]

I’m working on a BOINC server upgrade and “cert_all.php” doesn’t seem to work.

The following is hard coded in user.inc but gives a forbidden error response:

http://boinc.netsoft-online.com/get_user.php?cpid= 



Is there another url that we should use?

thanks in advance,
