hello willy

some projects are listet at "offline" like riesel sieve and docking for example. but the are running as well. so my question is the following one. do they don´t export stats or what is the problem there?

kind regards
diclo

Docking is exporting stats and has (few) WUs from time to time. My Docking credits went up the last days.
I don't crunch Riesel, so I can't say anything about that.

BTW:
Hallo diclo, willkommen im Docking Team, Wutzen sind Mangelware zur Zeit

Online/offline is determined by querying the scheduler. If the scheduler is down the project is listed as offline (That's why the list is called "Status schedulers" and not "Status project&quot.

hi willy.
but the riesel sieve page says that the scheduler is runing.... "Scheduler Online". in fact of being offline at your page i can´t manage the project via bam.....
for docking it is the same.... "scheduler docking Running"

Docking@Home scheduler is running (http://docking.cis.udel.edu/server_status.php) but shown as offline, so I can't link my Docking account to my BAM! account and attach my hosts. :|

Some teammates have experienced the same problem with Pirates@Home, which has been offline for many weeks according to BOINCstats scheduler status, but was up and running all the time.

I've crunched several WUs over the last days, the scheduler was up nearly all of the time, I only got messages á lá "there was work, but for you" or simply there were no WUs.
I don't know how the status is determined by you, but obviously something's wrong. Either the scheduler is behaving non-standard or you look at the wrong place.

Edit:
I'm talking about Docking, of course

Docking and Pirates changed their scheduler URL, I updated it.

Some projects use dynamic IP addresses. This seems to be a big challenge for Linux (or Debian). It takes a long time before the DNS cache is flushed. I looked into this a couple of times, but I can't find the Linux equivalent of 'ipconfig /flushdns'

I did a Google search and found this as a possible Linux flush DNS command:
