After I merged two computer id\'s for the same CPU, I noticed CPDN now thinks I\'m not sending up trickles. My log says I am. It looks like the client may be using the old computer id. Restarting the client doesn\'t fix it.
Two questions: is there a way to get the client to use the new computer id? And will the \"lack\" of trickles cause CPDN to do something like give the same WU to someone else?

Hold off for a couple of days and you may well see the trickles registered. The system is still in the process of catching up with trickles after its problems a week or so ago. It has suddenly started populating my backlog of about 50 trickles today (about another 40 left to catch up).

As well as the delays on trickles, it is also possible that the trickles are being registered to the deleted host. This is not a big problem since your overall credit will still be increased appropriately, so the usual advice is not to worry about it :-)
