Description
Tested on Fedora 19 x86_64 (with RPMs from repository), boinc version 7.2.33. Without linking the gui_rpc_auth.cfg file to my home directory, when I select Advanced -> Select Computer and I type "localhost" as target and put the password Boinc Manager can't connect to client. If I type "127.0.0.1" it connects.
This happens only with 7.2.33, if I downgrade boinc to 7.0.65 "localhost" works, so I don't think to a firewall/hostnames configuration problem.
