Go to the E@H front page and choose the option that lets you email your acccount key to yourself. When you get the email, cut and paste the account key right into the BOINC window. Be careful not to include any space characters or other extraneous stuff.

This is odd -- I don't know why BOINC is deferring communications for so long.
And my scheduler logs don't say why either! It looks as if you still have two WUs in progress -- is that right?

Did you do anything to your system's clock/time/date?

Cheers,
Bruce
