worked in getting BM to connect to the client and start crunching again. Thanks Keith! I still can't get BoincTasks to see that vm regardless of whether I tell BT to "find" computers or plug in the IP manually. Turned off the firewall, no change. I'll try it on another one of my vms tomorrow and see if I have better luck. Though it would be nice to see everything in one place, my farm is small, so it doesn't cause a real hardship.
Launch the client on the VM and check the logs. May be the BOINC allow_remote_gui_rpc, remote_hosts.cfg or gui_rpc_auth.cfg and the password that goes with that. If BOINC itself is invoking security, it'll log it.
