YOU don't change it, BOINC and your various projects do this.

Just wait patiently for a few days, while your computer contacts your other projects for work, etc, and they'll gradually change the cpid to a new one that's common to all of your projects.

Have you given exactly the same email address for CPDN as for all your other projects? If not, you need to change it in your account. Boinc recognises us by our email address not by our username.

According to BOINCstats it looks like you have 2 CPIDs (here and here). CPDN and malariacontrol.net are linked in the first account and 7 other projects in the second. If you are using the same email address for all projects you also need to be running a project mix on your computers which allows the CPIDs to align.

For one computer, only name and email address matter.

For multiple computers, there needs to be a common thread (of projects), between them.

e.g.
(Letters have been substituted for project names.)

computer 1
A
B
C
D

computer 2
C
E
F
G

In the above, the project "C" is the common link.
Otherwise projects E, F, & G will never be linked with projects A, B, C, & D.

The participating projects list on your CPDN account page shows that it has now aligned with the 7 projects. It should now just be a case of waiting for malariacontrol.net to align too.
