I'm not getting any work either, on multiple machines, and I have the

and says No work avaliable.

Hey Devon,

You are attached to the right URL, work will be handed out when it becomes
available (in my experience setting up four machines). One machine took two
days to get work.

...do i have something set wrong?  :(

This is the correct page for Boinc:
http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah/
To set up Boinc you need your user ID that they mailed you and the
url of the project. This is the url  http://setiathome.berkeley.edu
The reason you are not getting work is you are trying to connect to
the wrong url.
Detatch from the one you are attatched to and attatch to the url
above.
