I did get a private e-mail saying that "Connections (with seti@home)
have been strained for several weeks." Perhaps that's the simple
answer. I hadn't seen any posting on Berkeley's website so I posted
the question here.

I have the problem too. I have found that on the third try things go through
ok (for some unexplained reason), but this can be a hassle if you have more
than one machine to deal with ...

I think the problem my be due to the fact that they still haven't got that
new CPU installed on the main server ...
