我的BOING似乎無法跟主機取得聯繫。SETI@HOME計劃似乎無法開始。顯示：“無任務可供處理。”是否我的網絡設置有錯誤？請會中國語的同好教教我。

抱歉，我不講中文，但是我希望您能瞭解此機器翻譯：

錯誤很可能沒什麼與您的網絡設置。 因為他們替換數據服務器，項目不產生工作。 有許多問題用老設備。 志願者捐贈了二臺新的服務器採購的資金。 硬件現在實驗室裡，但是它將採取一個星期或更多，在安裝之前它并且準備接受客戶機。 請耐心并且尋找在主頁的新聞。 我肯定將有聲明，當一切再時運行。

(Sorry, I don't speak Chinese, but I hope you can understand this machine translation:

There is probably nothing wrong with your network settings. The project is not giving out work because they are replacing the data servers. There were many problems with the old equipment. Volunteers donated funds for the purchase of two new servers. The hardware is now in the lab, but it will take a week or more before it is installed and ready to accept clients. Please be patient and look for news on the home page. I'm sure there will be an announcement when everything is running again.)

here is the right Chinese translation (sorry Odysseus, your Google translation was not recognized by my Chinese colleague ;-) )

可能您的网络设置并没有错误。这个项目无法运行是因为他们在更换数据服务器。旧的设备存在很多问题。志愿者已经捐赠资金用于采购两台新的服务器。目前硬件正在实验室中，但是到他们安装就绪并准备接受客户尚需一周或更长时间。请耐心等待并关注主页上的新闻。我相信在一切都恢复运行时，一定会发布公告。

Thanks. JFTR the auto-translator used was Systran (through Apple’s Sherlock utility), not Google.

It translates comantin’s Q as

My BOING seems unable to have the contact with host computer. SETI@HOME plans as if unable to start. Displayed: “Does not have the task/role to be possible to be for processing." Whether my network settings do have the error? Please speak Chinese living together harmoniously to teach me.

and your A as

Possibly your network settings not error. This project is unable to run is because of them in the replacement data server. The old device has many problems. The volunteers capital endowment has been used to purchase two new servers. At present hardware in laboratory, but is installing to be ready and prepares to accept the client to them still to need for one week or for a long time. Please patiently wait for and pays attention to the main page news. I believe when all recovers to run, certainly will release the bulletin.

Ok, that is still not good enough ;-) My colleague is translating all the time technical stuff and did not get it ;-)))

But you are right with your examples...most of the time is Chinese to English fair enough but the other way just not working well.
