Hi,

This is a problem that surfaced on the BOINC forums
(https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=9724, possibly
also https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=9726), where
computers using BAM won't use the global preferences they set through
BAM, but instead seem to fall back upon the older preferences set
through the project.

Although both the global preferences seem to reference BAM as the
place where these preferences come from. Is it possible BOINC doesn't
read them correctly? Or -- in the case of the first referenced thread,
under Linux -- stores them in one directory, but actually uses them
from another directory?

In the first thread I reference, the mod time of the preferences set
at BAM is a second older than the mod time of the project. which is
weird by itself. BAM: <mod_time>1415659723</mod_time>, project
<mod_time>1415659724</mod_time>

Reading the BOINCStats/BAM forums, I see that this isn't a new problem.
http://boincstats.com/en/forum/19/7915,1
http://boincstats.com/en/forum/19/7488,1

It's possible that Jacob Klein references this same problem in
http://boincstats.com/en/forum/18/9159,1, although this problem should
then be fixed in 7.4.27, if it was fixed in 7.3.14+

Is this a BOINC or a BAM problem?

With thanks,

-- Jord van der Elst.
