Since Christmas I have had long periods of "no work" from server. I am using albert 4.39. For instance, today I have 2 units "ready to report" since this morning. Here is what my BOINC Manager Messages say:

Well new files have just been downloaded at 19.41 and work process has resumed. Why is this suddenly happening? Have I not the latest Einstein@Home and BOINC softwares?

In the future, if again you find your machine(s) idle and without work, I suggest that you look at the scheduler-side logs for a hint about what's wrong. You can find these by using the web interface to look at "your computers" and then clicking on the link labled "last contact". Then search for your hostid using your web browsers "find" button.

Cheers,
