If you check the BOINC forums, it's a problem at the server end.

Could you tell me where these forums are please? I just did a search
for "%s" in some forums at the SETI site and got no hits.

Network error, operation timed out.

That's the one I'm getting, a hundred times an hour or so, spread
around my machines.

Same here.

Strange how the client decides when to re-try. It says "backing off 1
minute 0 seconds" a few times, the '1 minute 9 seconds', then '3
minutes 10 seconds', etc. right through to '3 hours 30 minutes and
31 seconds'. Then back to 1 minute. This occurs for each unit it's
trying to send. I have a lot of attempted connects at the moment.

Trying to spread the load....so the server doesn't get hit by a huge
wave of simultaneous hits when normal service resumes (as used to
happen).  :-)

Yeah I guess. It just seems so random, the time-frame increases.
