Description
If I have running BOINC with several different projects and start a VPN connection to my university each application hangs / freeze (the progress do not increase). I use BOINC client 5.10.13 and CISCO client 4.8.01.300. If I suspend BOINC while I have an VPN connection and start BOINC after the connection all works right.

User didn't follow-up; and this looks like something worth discussing in a forum before filing as a bug anyway.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
Does it work if you exit boinc before starting the VPN, and then restart it once the VPN is connected? (Would also be a good idea to disable network activity in Boinc otherwise the Boinc traffic will be routed via your work proxy).
It sounds like the VPN is interfering with localhost traffic, which it shouldn't be doing.
