Thanks again...I use TThrottle as well. I'd also like to view all PCs in BT.

Yes I used both Find and Scan. All PC's are DHCP. Do I need static IP, even where I know the correct IP? I can do this if required.
Thanks

Thank you.

On Laptop, the PC I'm trying to view, BOINCmgr says:
Config:GUI-RPC allowed from: 192.168.1.13
which is the PC on which BT runs. There are no error messages of any kind on Laptop in BOINCmgr (again, BT is not installed on Laptop per your guidance).

ON x.x.x.13, the computer running BT, Laptop remains disconnected. There are no error messages about networking. Startup messages pasted below.

Repeating, where is the "Computer" tab that is supposed to contain more information about connection errors?

Any hints appreciated.

I have done everything in FAQ and manual but have no connection. Situation:
BoincTasks runs on 192.168.1.13 a Windows 7 32 bit PC.

I am not successful ADDing laptop 192.168.1.11 a Windows XP 64 bit machine on which BOINC runs as a service. BoincTasks is not installed on this PC. The two required files are present in BOINC Data directory D:\BOINC. BOINC program is installed in C:\ProgramFiles(x86). I've established a BOINC exception in Windows Firewall (desperation measure - not sure this is necessary). There is no BoincTasks indication it has seen the BOINC installed on laptop.

I've given BoincTasks the ip address (x.x.x.11). I cut and pasted the password found in laptop's gui_rpc_auth.cfg into BoincTasks.

The two PC's see each other in Browser service on my WiFi network. I have not shared the C: drive on either PC. The user for both PCs is an administrator.

BoincTasks FAQ says "More information about why a connection is lost can be found in the computers tab." I did not see a "Computers" tab in the FAQ. "Adding Computers" in the manual was not helpful to my issue.

Summarizing -- I'm out of ideas to find the problem. Please suggest.
