Thanks for your help Robert

it is working again, odd how it has to be started form /var/db/boinc !

also noticed that "boinc_cmd" has changed it name to "boinccmd"

and as for "boincmgr", I found that you need to run "boinccmd" from the 
/var/db/boinc folder as well, to do a manual update

regards,
David Whytcross
