1) Message boards : News : Switch to using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) (Message 95831) Posted 2 May 2020 by xotwod Post: I think your current work all gets dumped. I think mine did, for 4 cpus. I'm afraid to try it again. It does. That's why I set Rosetta to "no new tasks" - and let the queue run out, before removing and readding Rosetta under the new SSL URL. This really should be listed in the notice.

(Message 95675) Posted 1 May 2020 by xotwod Post: https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/stats.php This page continue to link to "BOINC Statistics for the WORLD! developed by Zain Upton" which appears to now be a spam site. Would it be possible to have this removed? Thanks.

(Message 92484) Posted 28 Mar 2020 by xotwod Post: I have noticed that a few tasks have disappeared from my statistics page in the Valid and Error section - I'm not concerned about points or anything, I'm just wondering if this is a bug and if not, I'm curious as to what's happening. Also, what happens to work units that error twice? Are they just done forever? Thanks :)

(Message 92433) Posted 28 Mar 2020 by xotwod Post: The executables are all signature verified using BOINC code signing. I was not clear what you are getting at with the rest. I believe all of the HTTP downloads and server interactions are on port 80. The BOINC client does use other ports locally on the PC to interact with the application threads running there. I think they were referring to that the file transfers aren't TLS-encrypted traffic.

(Message 92370) Posted 27 Mar 2020 by xotwod Post: Updates are needed to a few pages : On https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/stats.php there is a link titled : "BOINC Statistics for the WORLD! developed by Zain Upton " - this links to a spam site, the domain must have expired. Same thing on https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/home.php , "BOINC Statistics for the WORLD!" links to that same spam site. Fixing this would be much appreciated :)
