Boinccmd is a command line tool for controlling the Boinc client once it is running. You can use it to attach/detach projects, update projects and change other settings.
To start and stop the default client, I do the same as you...
Code: Select all
sudo /etc/init.d/boinc-client start
sudo /etc/init.d/boinc-client stop
sudo /etc/init.d/boinc-client restart
The status request does work but I never use it.
Code: Select all
sudo /etc/init.d/boinc-client status
This is how I start an additional client with files in the /var/lib/boinc1 folder in addition to the /var/lib/boinc-client folder...
Code: Select all
cd /var/lib/boinc1
/usr/bin/boinc --allow_multiple_clients --gui_rpc_port 31421 --dir /var/lib/boinc1 > /var/lib/boinc1/stdoutdae.txt

Or for the main client:
Code: Select all
sudo service boinc-client stop
sudo service boinc-client start

Does above apply to headless installation of Ubuntu/Debian?
