[edit] General

The is the URL that allows the BOINC Client Software to locate the Project's Scheduling Server and the Project's Data Servers. With this URL, the BOINC Client Software reads the Web Page at this URL and locates the "hidden" addresses of the other servers.

The Project's Master URL is the Web Page, usually the "Index" page of the Project's Web Site, which should have embedded within one or more comment lines (invisible when the page is normally viewed in a Web Browser) one or more URLs for the Project's Scheduling Servers.

This allows the Project to move the Servers to a new address without having to e-mail notices, contact and update all of the Participant's Computers, etc.
