Those using BOINC via the GUI can ignore this message. For those that use the command line, please note that using the weak account key is not currently supported. Within the VM we find an attribute called BOINC_AUTHENTICATOR which is usually set to the account key. However, if you use the weak account key, this is put as the value instead and you will not be able to request an X509 proxy.

AFAIK you can generate the weak account key from the account key. If anyone knows how to do this, please let me know.
