boinc client unable to download data

I'm trying to set up boinc on my machine and I followed the instructions on the wiki. However, when boinc is started on boot it is unable to download work units from my projects. I tried adding the boinc user to the network group but it didn't appear to have any effect.

Any thoughts? Thanks!

Re: boinc client unable to download data

Boinc attempted to download data after I tried reinstalling boinc. Here are the messages it spits out:

I know I have my hostname set in rc.conf and /etc/hosts. Is there anywhere else it needs to be set specifically for boinc?

Re: boinc client unable to download data

I got this error too. It seems like that network must be fully configured before starting boinc in rc.conf. I had network prefixed with a "@", i removed that and it works.
