BOINC Seti Back UP, 2 Aug

"August 2, 2004
The project remained down all weekend, but we are back up now. To add insult
to injury, the entire lab lost network connectivity to the rest of the
world for a few hours this morning. In light of the unexpected length of
this last outage, we are looking into mechanisms that allow us to keep
certain parts of the project up while others remain down for repair"

I saw that but still have not been able to connect.

Does anyone know if it's just a sign that the servers are overloaded or
that there are more problems. Maybe the question is has anyone been able
to connect?

Looks like it's business as normal :-(

I have gotten about 1/10 of my wu's results to upload today with no new wu's
to do. My stats have not changed since the first day I got some wu's.

I got 1 computer to clean out its SetiDriver cache, my other two are doing
the classic still.

Oh, will they fix the progress indicators? With in 5 minutes my computer
shows 50% + then takes 3-6 hours to finish the rest.

I now have no WUs to crunch, and the server is refusing to upload 2 I have
completed.

There's no point in going back to SETI Classic, as I understand they have run
out of WUs and are just sending out old ones to humour the crunchers.

I will switch off my computer when I'm not using it and save electricity until
the SETI team get things sorted.
