i have boinc installed, but doesn't look like it is grabbing the seti client. THe directory is there in the /BOINC/projects directory, but it is empty.

Looks like your system could not connect to the setiathome servers.
Is your nameresoulution OK ? - You can verify it with "nslookup setiathome.berkeley.edu"
Can you connect to the seti servers on port 80 ? - Try a "telnet setiathome.berkeley.edu 80" - If you get a prompt, type in "GET /".
Do you have a firewall installed between the affected system and the internet ?

There was also a outage of the seti servers from 5th to 6th January. The servers are gone online yesterday evening (about 22:00 UTC). So it could be, that you have tried to connect within this outage.
