Reset the controller to default settings.

Well, I'm down to only one mac again, but I stumbled across news that the author has got it working on Leopard (yay!). The new version still needs testing on Tiger though - any guinea pigs?

The checkbox in the Sharing preference pane activates the Xgrid *agent*--letting your computer help out on an existing grid. XgridLite activates the *controller*--letting you create a brand-new grid of your own.
