anyone know when we can see our stats again?

[Tripleshot]

I keep checking and all I get is that silly cow that looks like its got a gun in it's back. Has the url changed? its been more than 24 hrs down.

 

[BurntKooshie]

i see your stats right now just fine...

 

[SSP]

Huh??? It's up now. Both OGR and RC5 stats.

 

[Russ]

Yeah, they're up, and TA Cubes suck.

Russ, NCNE

 

[Tripleshot]

I hit refresh on this all day and no refresh
http://stats.distributed.net/rc5-64/psummary.php3?id=299496

WTF?

 

[ViRGE]

Clear your cache. The stats may be timing out, and loading whatever's in there.

I cleared everything.I still get the held up cow.I can see others stats from thier sigs but not mine. Any more ideas?

 

[Tripleshot]

Russ
OMG----------Borg at 28% of your best? Makes me want to cry. I still can't see my results.I don't know what they did,but if I can't see them ,I'll just have to eat beef.

 

[Russ]

Tripleshot,

Yeah, both labs are still wasting many thousands of Mhz cracking invalid OGR blocks.

Here's your stats in case you still can't get to them:

1,131 blocks were completed yesterday (0.00000165% of the keyspace)
at a sustained rate of 3,514 KKeys/sec! Ranked 4,856 for the day.

This is about 51% of the rate of this participant's best day ever, which was
29-Jun-2000 when 2,202 blocks were completed at a rate of 6,841 KKeys/sec.

Thanks.I have a dead machine today,a PIII533EB. also I haven't checked all the others,I can't seem to get this one doing what it should.
Did you just click on my sig to get those results?I click on it and I get the "under maintenence held up cow" page with the e-mail nugget link.(He hasn't answered my emails yet).

Even when I clicked on your link and menuevered around to the team page and clicked on anandtech,I got that "under maintenence held up cow" page again.
I cleared out history,shut down ,cold booted,cleared temp internet files, rebooted pc stil no luck. I wonder if I've been hacked,molested,whatever. Never had a problem till this OGR thing.
I did change the herd to crack only RC5. Do you think dnet got pissed off and blocked me?

I'm confused.

 

[ViRGE]

Humm, that's odd to say the least. I can pretty much garuntee you Dnet isn't blocking you, but as for you being hacked(or anything of the sort), I can't say. Try another machine, and see what happens.

 

[Tripleshot]

ViRGE

well my friend,I just tried from my athlon machine and got the same result(my first try was the PIII600E)

I am beginning to suspect it is at Dnet.I am being blocked. I will now shut down the server.When I come back,I hope it is cleared up.

 

[ViRGE]

If you are being blocked, I'm amazed. I've never known Dnet to do that, so you'd have to pretty much send them a death threat to be blocked.

 

[Tripleshot]

Well,I'm back.I shut down the server and went to bed last night.I woke up,reset the server,came back in here and got the same problem.How do I clear the cache of my IE 5.5 browser? I thought I did it already,but maybe not.

 

[SSP]

Go o your cookie folder, and see if you have a d.net cookie. Then go to your temp Internet folder, and delete everything (except for the folder it self).

If that don't work... send your machine to me. I'll see if you're doing something wrong

 

[Tripleshot]

SSP

Thanks for the offer,but I think I'll keep my pc here.I did what you and others have said and it still does the same thing.It happens on every machine in the system,which leads me to believe it is at Dnet.Why? It is the only common connection other than my server which should just be a pass through.
I now have to reset everything in my computer,from passwords to saved links.This is annoying to say the least. If you click on the link in my sig,you see the stats,right?If I click on the stats link in someone elses stats,I see them fine. If I click on my own,I get that damned cow with its hooves held high in the air.I am no longer amused.

This might not help, but something similar happened to me a few months ago. The computers at my ISP were the ones caching the page, so no matter how much I cleared my own cache or hit refresh, I still got an old version. I appended some meaningless URL variables like

http://www.yahoo.com/index.html?fake=adf&fake2=62433

And it worked for me, because my ISP's computer treated it as a brand new page and downloaded the new version instead of serving me the cached version.

Don't know if that will help you, but it might. Even if this doesn't help, I think it's much more likely that you're getting a cached version from SOMEWHERE rather than DNET is intentionally "blocking" you.

Thanks for the info.You are the first to give a plausable explination.Nugget has been emailing me and even emailed my stats page.They don't think it is them,so I believe them,but I am puzzled that all my pc's are blocked here.I have a Linux server,but I don't have a public cache file that I am aware of. My ISP may be doing it.They offer some program like that and one of my users may have subscribed with out my knowledge. I share 1 connection through my server.It would cache everything comingfrom that server I presume. I can't wait to get this behind me.It's taken all the fun out of my weekend, and that's not good.

 

[Nugget94M]

Are you running a squid cache or anything on your nat box? Something between you and our stats server must be caching the page.

Xede is correct, some ISPs do employ transparant caching which, if improperly configured, would result in this happening.

I can assure you, it's not on our end.

I found this thread by viewing the dozens of successful hits to your stats by people who have clicked the link you included in your posts above.

This hit looks like it might be you:

38.33.137.166 - - [16/Jul/2000:17:43:47 +0000] "GET /images/dcti128.jpg HTTP/1.1" 304 - "http://stats.distributed.net/rc5-64/psummary.php3?id=299496" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)"

304 is a "Not modified" return which means that the browser and the server have both decided that the browser has the most current copy of the content. Just on a lark, check that your system's time/date are set accurately.

I think it's pretty safe to say that somewhere between us, there's a cache that's misconfigured and misbehaving. In fact, that IP resolves to "cache.infowest.net" which sure does sound suspicious, doesn't it?

Yes,I think you are right on that.My business website is also php3.The ISP may have done something.I will contact them first thing in the A.M. Here in Utah,almost all businesses are closed for Sunday in observence of the Sabbath as they understand it to be.

I appreciate your help. I still can't get anything of my own through the link but I can see others.I am trying to get others to assimilate for this effort and I will for the team effort on all aspects of Team Anandtechs endeavors.

I will post here when I find the solution so others will know.I noticed this (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)"
.On this machine I have IE 5.5. The others are 5.0 or 5.1 but like I said,they do not see the stats either. The server is linux and I am new to it's workings.As soon as I feel comfortable,it will be cracking RC5 as well.

I need to thank you for pointing me in the right direction.I would have thanked you sooner if the forum was up.
Sorry to all for ranting.The problem was indeed my ISP.They decided to impliment a webpage caching server for all thier customers. After a long bout with rthem today tracing and duplicating,it is now accessable and Dnet is excluded from that caching server.Now to assimilate more cows in my ISP's neighborhood.
(I don't think a webpage caching server is a good idea.I expierienced more problems on other sites today that I think I can attribute to the Cache server,so I need to do more studying)
