I updated and now Dimes won't connect... :-(

I even reverted back to 0.3.9.9 and still won't connect...

k, it worked this time :? thanks.

i cant get any work right now though :(

[Beerknurd]

Yea mine too. Dimes is having some serious server problems today. They probably all left early and went to the pub. :P

[Empty_5oul]

it said they were on holiday, i hope they sort it out soon.

[NeoGen]

My Dimes is working again

I tried it once more this morning and this time it connected, made the files exchange and started making measurements.

[Empty_5oul]

mine is up as well now :thumbleft:

neo how many agents do you have running right now?
and beer how many for you as well ? - (i thought it was the P4 only :?)

[Beerknurd]

I have my P3, P4, and AMD running it.

[NeoGen]

I only have my good old XP 2000+ but it has been handling the demand very well so far... ;)

[Beerknurd]

Actually the P4 doesn't run it for very long... I still have to run version 3 on it cause I can't figure out why my ICMP and UDP protocols are blocked. It's starting to piss me off. Version 3 turns it's self off after a while. It's quite annoying. I wish I could figure out why both protocols are blocked.....

i was gonna say your scores were very high for 1 machine but that explains it.
