Ned.....My gut feel on this is timing. There is another similar issue in thread "getting 500 response from server" . This is mostly Australia that is affected ...with some others.

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=18705

Sometimes they can connect sometimes not. When not they use a proxy and all is OK for a while then not. So they move proxy and hey ho its OK for a while. I am hoping someone will send a packet trace without proxy. I would like to see server responses and web server responses.

Are any of you dial up users?


I have tried most of the previous suggestions. The only thing that is working for me at the moment is one of the proxy servers listed on Tigher's website (thanks for that!).

I have done route traces to several of the setiboinc servers - here is an example, with the first two hops (my local network) deleted:

21 * * 1193 ms galileo.ssl.berkeley.edu [128.32.18.173]

Obviously there are some problems, but I am not convinced that this is the issue. I suspect that most of those having trouble in Australia are using the same ISP, and it probably does not matter what type of connection it is - mine is a satellite.

I am not experiencing any of the 500 errors that others have been reporting. My problem is simply that without the proxy servers, the messages in the Boinc Manager are all of this type:

18/08/2005 8:57:58 PM|SETI@home|Scheduler RPC to http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/cgi failed
18/08/2005 8:57:58 PM|SETI@home|No schedulers responded
18/08/2005 8:57:58 PM|SETI@home|Deferring communication with project for 1 minutes and 0 seconds
When I turn on the proxy server and send the same request a few seconds later, it is successful (eg 18/08/2005 8:58:59 PM|SETI@home|Scheduler RPC to http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/cgi succeeded)

I am no expert in these matters, and am happy to be guided by those that are.

Yes this has not worked again for the last few days and I am yet to find another proxy server that works. Any suggestions welcome!


I just (finally) got a connection via anonymous proxy - 200.30.171.82, port 80 (see www.publicproxyservers.com/page1.html). Dunno how long it will last, but...

Stephen


Works for me too, at least for the moment!

Thanks

Post:
Since recent changes at SETI BOINC, I and many others have been unable to connect to the servers without using proxy servers. The trouble is, each time someone posts details of a proxy server that works, it is either overloaded or disabled so it no longer works.

Can anyone post details of any proxy servers that are open and operating that will allow us all to access SETI??

If you go to the forums number crunching here there are some threads on this problem. These include proxy details which is a work around perhaps for you at the moment.
Hope that helps


Thanks for this post - I found that the proxy server settings of 203.53.113.5 80 fixed the problem for me.

Thanks again.

Post:
Since the DNS switch reported on July 26, my computers have not been able to connect to a scheduler to either upload or download work. I have tried every method I can think of to re-establish a connection without success.

Two other computers running on a differnet internet connection can get access. This has to be some sort of DNS issue but my attempts to rectify it have been fruitless.

Any suggestions?
