	It's looking like we might have find the culprit of the random HE connection problems - a corrupt routing table in one of our routers. I believe we cleaned it up. So... did we? How's everybody doing now? Of course, we're coming out of a typical Tuesday outage, so there's a lot of competing traffic. Also jocelyn survived just fine doing its mysql replica duties over the weekend and through the outage. Though we hit one snag with a difference between 5.1 and 5.5 mysql syntax. How annoying! Not a major snag, though, and everything's fine. Jeff and Bob are still doing tons of data-collecting tests trying to figure out the best way to configure the memory on oscar, the main informix/science database server. Will more memory actually help? They jury is still out. Or the trial is still going on. Pick your favorite metaphor. - Matt ____________ -- BOINC/SETI@home network/web/science/development person -- "Any idiot can have a good idea. What is hard is to do it." - Jeanne-Claude

	Hi! HE connection problems moved to another part of the world. None of my PCs managed to connect after outage: and they are on 3 different ISPs. There is plenty of reports in Number Crunching treads as well. BR, good luck!

	Folks... Rather than discuss connection problems here, please post them in the Number Crunching thread on HE connection problems that Matt has established for that purpose, and which he is monitoring.

Though I was able to connect from Home, ISP Time Warner Cable. http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=64652&nowrap=true#1138337 I don't know if the ISP matters. I also have AT&T and all three of my machines have contacted the server this morning. The powerful new one downloaded 337 new units and reported about 100 over the course of a few hours last night and a few more this morning (with a 5 hour no-contact gap in the middle). If the ISP matters, it's probably more specific than an overall company, getting down to individual geographic regions (I'm in the suburbs of Chicago).
