I was feeding a farm that peaked at about 25 systems with SetiQueue from
the one system used for dialin. The self-queueing of BOINC doesn't do
me any good if only one system connects.

True, unless you can set up the connected system as a proxy. Sorry, I 
didn't consider that situation. BOINC requires the computer that does 
the work to upload & download as well. You can work around it to some 
extent, assuming the computers in the farm are more or less identical, 
but it means a lot of tedious starting & stopping, enabling & disabling 
access, copying folders (and keeping track of the copies), and whatnot, 
from the connected system.
