Hi people

I was wondering if you can give me a guide to a couple of small problems
I have with SETI Queue?

The first is Queue seems to randomly disable itself. 

I have logged in as the administrator and re-enabled Queue 3 times over
the last 2 weeks. Has anyone any idea why this happens, or what triggers
it?

The second, which is coincidental with the Queue disabling itself today,
is a WU which Queue thinks is on one of the PCs on my small farm, and
now 10s of hours overdue (in the red).

The PC in question is a 4 year old single CPU Coppermine (1 WU only run
at all times - the CLI). Queue thinks it is still on the PC, which has
crunched 2 others. 

Queue indicates this machine has 2 WUs running at the same time. SETI
Driver on this machine shows a cache of 1 WU, crunching 1 WU and nothing
else.

How can I get Queue to "loos" this ghost WU, and so reset properly?

Looking forwards to some knowledgeable offerings.

Kind regards

John
