Hi, The server in my office run on freebsd/AMD64 9.0 release. The server have pf firewall, and squid proxy.

I have 3 computers in the office that run boinc and connect to the server.
1. einstein with mac os x laptop boinc-mgr 6.12.35(x86)
2. milkyway with my desktop office running windows xp sp3, boinc-mgr 6.12.34 (x86).
3. FreeBSD/AMD64 9.0 server itself with boinc-mgr 6.4.5.

The server runs fine, the boinc can get/send tasks.

Unfortunately, the other two, can't get new/send task. I can get new tasks via WiFi or modem (which means removing the LAN cable:( ).

I tried to change via menu tools-display and network options, to the proxy server, and it had no effect. They didn't complaint about can't connect to internet (except if I change to socket), it just displayed the message couldn't connect to the server. While the other applications such as browsers had no problem accessing internet.

Anyhelp to solve this problems?

thx

Well, I found the solution, after searched google using the words "boinc squid", and the solution was at http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=2665#17120
