Re: [Dx4win] Cluster disconnect question
Yup, DX4WIN is connecting to 'localhost:7300' and that's what's dropping after a day or so. There doesn't seem to be any real pattern to it, unfortunately. (If it happened every 12 hours or something I'd suspect my antivirus, for example.) I've moved it from 'localhost:' to '1.2.3.4:7300' using the system's local IP. If that doesn't make it better, I'll move CC User to a different computer to see if it gets any better. It is pretty strange - this same setup used to be as solid as a rock, which is why it's not likely to be DX4WIN's fault. As far as other comments go - I'm not telling DX4WIN to connect directly to a cluster node. If you're doing that and it's periodically disconnecting you, that could be caused by your Internet router or just because the Internet burped. You can try turning on the keepalive that Jim referred to, or do what I do and install VE7CC's CC User since it manages the cluster connection for me. If the node drops me or the Internet breaks, CC User will reconnect when the node comes back. 73, -Rick On Thu, Oct 14, 2010 at 8:12 PM, Mel ve...@videotron.ca wrote: It's disconnecting from the loop-back?

Re: [Dx4win] Cluster disconnect question
I don't remain usually for long periods connected but the last with all pj stations i stayed a little more and i noticed this once (disconnect from ve7cc program).

I have both a direct as well as a wireless connection to the VE7CC software, and I never lose my connection from DX4WIN, and haven't for years, in any version. I see that my use of VE7CC is ambiguous. I use VE7CC's CC User program on my Windows XP system to connect over the Internet to the W3LPL node. That connection is not what's breaking. I connect from DX4WIN to the loopback (127.0.0.1: 7300) that's the connection that's being dropped. Since there's no indication why this is happening, it could be a bug in CC User as well. I was under the impression that the VE7CC CC User program was what was disconnecting. If it's happening to others not using CC User then perhaps the finger is pointing back? I'll probably have to set up something to sniff the connection so I can figure out what end (CC User or DX4WIN) is causing the disconnect. 73, -Rick -- Rick Murphy, CISSP-ISSAP, K1MU/4, Annandale VA USA __ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dx4win@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
