In Windows 2000, is is possible to have CPDN keep running even when all users are logged off?

Yes. Install as a service. Make certain to remove the BOINC_GUI.exe from startup. Make certain that it is exited. Run the command BOINC_CLI.exe -install from a DOS box. You will have to set the BOINC login user to "System" before this will work. However, you will loose the ability to see what is going on until either you upgrade to 4.5x CC (not recommended yet) or use an external viewer such as BOINCView.
