I don't want to run a server. I just want to get the boinc applications (boinc-clent and boincmgr) that I downloaded (yumed) from the Fedora 9 repo up and running. And, I want to keep it running after I re-boot. My problem is I keep getting this error message from bonicmgr: "BOINC is unable to communicate with a project and needs an Internet connection. "Please connect to the Internet, then select the 'retry communications' item off the advanced menu." I am connected to the internet. I have selected the 'retry communications item off the advanced menu. I always get: "Sat 28 Jun 2008 09:39:50 AM EDT|World Community Grid|Sending scheduler request: Requested by user. Requesting 2 seconds of work, reporting 0 completed tasks" and "Sat 28 Jun 2008 09:39:55 AM EDT|World Community Grid| Scheduler request failed: Couldn't resolve host name" I never had this problem when I installed in F8 from the boinc site rpm. Boinc works in F9 immediately after a new install. By the way, time wasn't wasted last night. I did delve into learning about matters I should have dealt with before. But... Any suggestions on how I get my boinc working. -- Regards Bill; Fedora 9, Gnome 2.22.2 Evo.2.22.2, Emacs 22.2.1 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
