So I missed something, while connecting, from localhost before setting 
the password, I had the error, after setting the password, connexion 
went sucessfully.

Adding a password in the file and using it solved my problem, so I 
mis-interpreted the origin of the problem.

So maybe my boinc-client was seeing my connexion as a remote one ? The 
buf may be here ?

I just tried on another debian box and it works without password as you 
said.

I may try to remove the password on my first box and run some tests for 
you if you have an idea.

Bests,
