Alchemi [.NET Grid Computing Framework]

File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: Alchemi v.1.0.6

Notes:
This release contains some small important new features. 

- The Manager, Executor are now designed run under least-privileged user accounts by default. In service mode, they run as 'LocalService' - which is a limited privilege user account.
- The Manager, Executor will (in both normal and service mode), will now read / write config files from the users' AppData directory.
In Windows XP, this would be :
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Alchemi\Manager\

or

C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Alchemi\Executor\

- The logs are located in the user's Temp directory which would be (in Windows XP),

C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Temp\Alchemi\Manager\logs

or

C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Temp\Alchemi\Executor\logs

- This changes mean that an Administrator or user with admin privileges can install Alchemi, and start up the services, while any user can run Alchemi and/or clients without needing admin rights.
- Added Sandboxed execution for optionally running user's GThreads under low privileges. (These options are not all exposed through the GUI / API yet)
