So now all boinc things are no longer there.

Then I tried to run boinc_cmd --host localhost:80

./boinc_cmd --host localhost:80
connect: Connection refused
can't connect to localhost

I also tried to see if there was an /etc/default/boinc_cmd but there
was nothing there .

To remove all ambiguity. I deleted the whole folder & re-installed BOINC 5.10.7
all over again but the above error persists.

I'm very sorry guys if I'm taxing your attention rather than helping you guys,
the intention is there but I do need to learn where what I'm doing wrong.
