the FreeBSD port of seti at home is packaged using pre-build binaries. we don't
have
access to the source code, so, it would be difficult to track down such
problems.

which version of setiathome are you running (pkg_info setiathome\* | head -1) ?
what is the version of your FreeBSD boxes (uname -a) ?

do you have any trace of what's happen (or don't) ?
do you read the FAQ (http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/faq.html) ?
do you search the BB (http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/bb/bb.cgi) ?
