Thank you, Rob!!
Curious goings-on......
I shut down everything and power-off-on of DSL modem and router.
Waited for the timeout to expire.
Still stuck.
edit: - Unable to get new wu from any WCG project.
But...
Added a Malaria control project on the PC that was stuck.
It could get downloads and WU OK.
My cc_config.xml had been wiped out.
I copied over a copy from another box - same version BOINC.
Added debug,
AH-HAH
the need connection messgae repeated every second...

the online msg repeats fo 30 or so seconds, then it goes back to the
'need connction' message.
This is a Debian Linux box and I checked what SSL is installed:
jay@pc-mini:~$ aptitude search ssl | grep ^i i libssl0.9.8 - SSL shared libraries i A openssl - Secure Socket Layer (SSL) binary and relat i A python-openssl - Python wrapper around the OpenSSL library i A ssl-cert - simple debconf wrapper for OpenSSL
and
/etc/ssl/certs has a lot of links to /usr/share/ca-certificates/...

permissions looked ok to me.. but I could be missing the large, pink elephant.
OK,
I'm stumped - don't know what to check next.

Thanks again!!
