Default Folding with multiple PC's
Hey, I have a question that may or may not have already been addressed, but I couldn't find it when I flipped through some other posts...
Can I fold on multiple PC's simultaneously under the same user? Or does each PC have to be running it's client under a different user?

You can use as many pcs as you want to under the same user. I use both in my sig.
And several people on our team are folding for pscout (so there are about a dozen comps folding for that user.

Of course you can fold using multiple PCs using the same username. That's how members run folding rigs.

edit: ninja'ed...

Sweet, I'll have to set it up on another rig when I get home... and a third when I get my wife a new setup put together... and a fourth when the htpc get's completed... oh the possibilities.

I wish someone had warned me that folding is as addictive as crack before I got started...

You have more PCs ,more PCs = More PPD . IP Address dont matter ether so you can get your PC at work folding or get your parents or friends. as long as the team # is 54196 and your name is the same it all good
