PowerShell module for managing BOINC clients on local and remote hosts
Install via Install-Module PSBoinc -Scope CurrentUser.
RPC cmdlets operate in local or remote sessions. Local sessions are authenticated automatically:
Enter-BoincSessionRemote sessions require the RPC password (can be looked up from gui_rpc_auth.cfg):
Enter-BoincSession "192.168.0.11" "9096083b1c5a02d473a81784eb8e0862"After a session has been opened, RPC cmdlets can be used to manage the client. Sessions are closed explicitly with Exit-BoincSession and implicitly when opening another session.
