I'd like to use Rosetta@Home as a backup project, meaning I would receive work for it when my main projects have none available. I usually do this by setting the resource share of a backup project to zero so that it only requests work when none is available for any of my projects with a non-zero resource share setting. However, when I enter zero as the resource share on my preferences page, it resets itself at 100. I can't seem to set it any lower than 1. Has anyone else observed this?

Right, the server code is from before BOINC supported zero as a backup project. So one is as close as you can get.
