Hi everyone! I was hoping one of you out there could help me. I have many hosts names in the host name field. Where can I go to remove all the invalid hosts names?

Thanks for the assistance!

If you're using windows, they're in a registry key - sorry, don't have a windows system currently to locate them, but you can search using regedit and find them. You can delete them there if you're comfortable editing the registry. I don't think there is any other way in windows to delete them.

If you're using linux, they're in a file in your home directory named ".BOINC Manager", and you can simply delete the entries using any text editor.
