When I select the no new work option in the hosts list and sync them the no new work option won't activate. I have to visit all my hosts and and change it manually.

I just tested with a 5.10.45 and a 6.1.0 host and it worked fine.

Please read the bug submit rules how you can provide more information.

Ok then heres some additional info.

BOINCstats BAM ID 57117

BAM ID//Host name///////////////////Client version/////Last contacted BAM

As stated before the problem is when I select the no new work option in the host project options accessed through the host list link under the BAM menu in the upper left hand corner. After I sync my hosts with BAM the no new work option on the host doesn't activate. So I had to go and change the manually.

I checked some of the BAM! replies send to your hosts, and this problem is not caused by BAM!. For example, here is a part of the reply send to host 126028:

As you can see, the dont_request_more_work is present in the reply. Then it's up to the client to act on it.
