(moderation:
When I try to request new work (through remote management from a windows computer using the 'update' button), the following is logged to the screen:
2007-02-24 15:25:34 [Einstein@Home] Sending scheduler request to http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/EinsteinAtHome_cgi/cgi
2007-02-24 15:25:34 [Einstein@Home] Reason: Requested by user
2007-02-24 15:25:34 [Einstein@Home] Requesting 17280 seconds of new work
2007-02-24 15:25:39 [Einstein@Home] Scheduler request succeeded
2007-02-24 15:25:39 [Einstein@Home] Message from server: platform 'sparc64-sun-solaris' not found
It looks like the remote host is not returning work because it does not know what platform 'sparc64-sun-solaris'is. The physical server running boinc is a Sunfire 280R. Any suggestions? Thank you for your help as I am new to running boinc under Solaris.

You need to download the application manualy and place a app_info.xml.
The application is downloadable here : http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/app_test/SolSPARC/albert_4.68_sparc-sun-solaris.tar.gz
And my (working) app_info.xml :
albert
einstein_S5R1_4.68_sparc-sun-solaris2.7
einstein_S5RI
einstein_S5R1_4.68_sparc-sun-solaris2.7
albert

einstein_S5R1_4.68_sparc-sun-solaris2.7
einstein_S5RI

einstein_S5R1_4.68_sparc-sun-solaris2.7
You must use this example of the app_info.xml, because the application name (release) has changed.
