three computers on home network

Post by Bonzobear »

A simple question. I often have two, sometimes three (!) computers running at home on my network. Can I use the same username/passkey combination on all three or do I need to set up a "team"? Thanks...I was folding at home a long time ago but somehow got sidetracked. It`s good to be back.

Welcome to foldingforum.org, Bonzobear.

Yes, you really SHOULD use the same passkey and the same Username. Team is not important (except to members of an established team).

Bonzobear, you are in very good company. Do an Internet search for "Folding Farm."
