    I tried to run without the "sleep" command, it fails:

    # systemctl start boinc-client.service

      Job for boinc-client.service failed. See 'systemctl status
      boinc-client.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.

      [root@deneb marvin]# systemctl status boinc-client.service --full

      This time it's the sleep command that will override the xhost exit
status. Since you're running xhost in foreground, you shoudn't need to
sleep at all.

In general, if you have several commands in a script, but you want it
to abort as soon as one command fail, you can:
- run it with sh -e
- add set -e in your script

This is a one-command script, so you can simply run xhost, and the
shell exit status should be xhost's exit status. Btw, do you really
need a script ? Can't systemd handle something like:
ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/xhost +SI:localuser:boinc
