I believe that what Patrick was trying to tell you is that if you are
using NetworkManager, then it's entirely possible that networking isn't
fully operational when boinc service starts at bootup which would cause
it to fail. That can probably be verified by merely issuing
'/sbin/service boinc restart' (assuming that restart is an option for
the boinc sysv script). If that works, then it might just be easier to
put that command in /etc/rc.d/rc.local (/sbin/service boinc restart)

Yes, I am using NetworkManager. I have tried one last test. I removed
and re-installed boinc. With that, boinc was able to connect to WCG and
download 2 more work units. Boinc has only been able to connect to WCG
to get work units on a new install -- never after a re-boot. Boinc is
processing those work units now.
I have since shut down my computer and rebooted. Since the work units
are on my machine, my computer is continuing to process those units. It
will take approximately 6 hrs to finish processing them. I am waiting
to see if then it can automagically re-connect to WCG and obtain further
work units.
If it can't I will try Patrick's Network Manager solution.
If that works, I then have to decide whether this is a Network Manager
bug; a Boinc bug; or both. Of course, if boincmgr does successfully
reconnect to WCG and download additional work units, I will write the
whole thing off as my screwing around too much while Boinc was just
trying to do its thing.
