Well it has been a farce here, thought I got it working with a complete new
install of client into new dir and started her up, d/loaded new units to new
cache started a work unit and when I got up this morning the same prob, when
a unit is finished it tries to send but hangs with no messges in the log
just "connecting to server".

So I then thought it might be a corrupt exec, so d/loaded a new bin 3.08, I
was running 3.03 before, unpacked into new dir and ran it, all hunky dorey
thought I would use ksetiwatch just incase it was ksetspy that had got
confused, work unit finished and it got stuck uploading.

Went to dir and ran exec and it sent and d/l a new unit, so now I wait till
unit finishes and nothing it just hangs with no errors and I get the same
result if I run the bin from the directory

So am really confused now nothing will send results, four different
directories all in different locations each with a newly unconpressed client
each with new d/loaded units 2 with different clients 3-03/3.08

Anyone? :)



If anyone is that sad to be following this thread still here is an update.

Started a new installation of seti last night using a new 3.08 client ran from
cli and got new unit monitored it with ksetiwatch and this morning zip, nada
still the same prob ( unit will not send but gives no error message ).

The keys in the .sah files are all ok ( brand new units which I have
registered yesterday ) I have compared them with the ones from another
machine next to me on the same network which has worked fine through all this 
( so that rules out the firewall ).

It cannot be a communication error as if I use ksetispy it will replace the
unit in the cache so it is sending something to seti@home to trigger the
download of new unit just not sending the old results.

Help anyone, was hoping to get past my 5 year mark next month with a decent
score but if I can`t get this machine going I will be losing abot 300 units
which means I will miss the 6000 units mark :(
