Boinctasks not communicating with Windows 8 machine. Don't know if this is boinctask problem or windows 8 problem.
Both boinc and tthrottle are running okay on windows 8 machine and communicating via the internet. The windows machiine is not talking to the boinctasks machine (XP3).
Have set remote_hosts.cfg file and gui_rpc_auth.cfg file correctly on the windows 8 machine and added the computer name and ip address to boinctasks machine.
I have rebooted both machines and they do not communicate via boinctasks. I am using the lastest beta tthrottle and the latest beta boinc and boinctasks 1.58.
Any help would be appreciated.

Try this: http://www.efmer.eu/boinc/boinc_tasks/manual_net.html (http://www.efmer.eu/boinc/boinc_tasks/manual_net.html)
The BoincToolbox is for solving problems.
It should work just fine with Win 8, it's fully tested that way.
Most likely a firewall that blocks something.
Are they both on the same IP net and using IPv4?
Turned out to be firewall problem as RPC was not turned on.
Thanks Fred!
