How to tie a project to a slave node in Hudson CI server?

Question

I'm trying to set up a Hudson slave node. Following Hudson -- Step by step guide to set up master and slave machines one eventually finds the instruction to "Check the 'Tie this project to node' check box" on a project.

I don't find this check box, nor any other way to tell a project that the new slave node exists.

How is this done?

(I have actually followed the approach of http://i-proving.com/2009/02/17/setting-up-a-hudson-slave/, using JNLP, not SSH, but still have no way to tie a project to a node.)

I'm using Hudson with several nodes. Actually I have a checkbox named "Tie this project to a node" when I create a new project. See my screenshot :

Thanks much. Strangely, my Hudson has everything as yours does, except the fifth checkbox is labeled "Restrict where this project can be run" – Eric Wilson Jan 06 '11 at 20:29
It's very strange. Are you sure that you have several nodes that are running properly ? – Sandro Munda Jan 06 '11 at 20:44
Yes, and using my "Restrict where this project can be run" checkbox, I'm able to tie a project to a slave node. Your picture was a great help. – Eric Wilson Jan 07 '11 at 18:01

The text was modified in a recent version of Hudson. – Kohsuke Kawaguchi Jan 10 '11 at 22:39

In Jenkins 1.506 this says "Restrict where this project can be run". – mikhail_b Jun 11 '13 at 00:54

It looks like the name got changed. When I enter a slave node in the "Restrict where the project can be run" text area it executes the project build on the slave node.
