3) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Grid Republic Desktop Cannot Connect To Client (Message 14326) Posted 14 Dec 2007 by Tom Harrington Post: I notice in the log "12/14/2007 3:19:22 PM\|\|Host location: none" Is this my problem? Why doesn't it say "localhost"?

5) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Grid Republic Desktop Cannot Connect To Client (Message 14324) Posted 14 Dec 2007 by Tom Harrington Post: OK to make things a little easier I uninstalled Grid Republic and then re-installed BOINC my error message now says "BOINC Manager Unable to connect to client"
6) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Grid Republic Desktop Cannot Connect To Client (Message 14320) Posted 14 Dec 2007 by Tom Harrington Post: I don't know if this makes any differece but I have been using UD Agent for about 4 years on this machine without any problems, even forget that it was installed. But got a message that the UD was being phased out to BOINC so am trying to get it going with the same amount of intervention on my part as I had with the UD agent.
7) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Grid Republic Desktop Cannot Connect To Client (Message 14318) Posted 14 Dec 2007 by Tom Harrington Post: The only reason that I am using Grid Republic is because I thought that I might solve the problem that I am having by trying them?? No change though pre vs post Grid Republic
8) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Grid Republic Desktop Cannot Connect To Client (Message 14316) Posted 14 Dec 2007 by Tom Harrington Post: I am having a problem each time I re-boot my XP PC. I get a message that the desktop cannot connect to client and do I want to retry. Each time what I have to do is go in and select compute as "localhost" and everything works fine until I re-boot. I have checked and BOINC is allowed in Windows Defender and I have also added the whole BOINC folder to the allowed files. Any ideas?
