How do I cancel running of a work-unit?

[jasong]

Hey, guys, because of a project I started after starting an E@H unit, the Einstein@Home unit is expired. The problem is it's running anyway. Is there any easy way(within the BOINC interface) to get it to quit? I messed with the priorities of BOINC and another program I'm running so that BOINC won't get many resources until my first project runs out of work, but I'm frustrated about "useless" work.

Ideas?

You can always detach that project from BOINC.

That sounds a little drastic. Will it remember my info?

Best way is to goto the E@H website and update the priority to the lowest possible piority. That's what sucks about BOINC, no easy way to fix anything :rolleyes:
