Could be they have a cluster of machines that all report through the one computer and that computer is the only one with a Boinc id. I think they call it a superhost as the others hosts on the system don't have access to the net, so one computer gets all the glory.

That is NOT possible. It's a feature request that has not been implemented.

That's not strictly correct. It's true that BOINC does not have the capability to support 'superhosts' officially (and it's not clear yet if it ever will).

However, it is possible to manually implement 'superhost' functionality. This could even be automated if the user programmed or scripted the required modules themselves.
