I have a Mac Pro at my fingertips that's been collecting dust for a couple years. It has dual Xeons, so I want to put it to work. I have the console client running and it's folding well. I am familiar with Linux but am having difficulty setting the folding client to run automatically. What I do in Linux is have a single line in rc.local that launches the folding client under a specified user account. It's like this:
cd /home/username/fah && sudo -u username ./fah6 &

Any Mac guys out there that can tell me how to do a similar effect in OS X? :confused:
 
Slightly embarrassing but I'll post how I got it working. The positive thing is it's extremely easy to someone familiar with Unix CLI. My Mac tower has no KB, mouse, or monitor connected to it. I also want F@H to run without having to log in. I met those conditions with contrab -e.
@reboot /Users/username/Library/Folding@home/fah6
