PProxy operator, my herd can't flush.

Is this a problem with my ISP? It is set for the round robin proxy.teamanandtech.com. It connects to Mandrill's proxy, will download block but get a Bad flush acknowledgement. Any ideas? It wasn't like this last week.
 
He got backed up about a week ago. Had something to do with his DNS server not resolving to Mika's correctly. I haven't talked to him in a couple of days, so not sure what's going on now.

Wonder if Win2K got the best of him. 😉
 
I lost about 2000 blocks in the last 3 days, do you suppose I will ever see them again? This is the first time I have lost blocks for over a year. Maybe the round robin not such a good idea after all.
Bleep
 
No, I'm sure Mandrill's pproxy still has them. It's just a matter of getting it to flush right.

I hope so but if not, so be it. What is done is done, in the scheme of life it is just another little bump in the sidewalk.

44K blocks still stuck at Mandrills. Don't worry, your blocks are probably still there. I myself also have about 2k blocks lost and which are still awol when i first joined.
 
Mandrill just fixed his proxy. It seems Win2K doesn't like his RealTek NIC. He replaced and flushed the blocks. Hopefully he can sit down after a dump like that. 😉
 
Hi all. Here is an update on my pproxy situation.

I was able to recieve blocks but not flush them. I moved my pproxy from my old trusty p-233@266 mmx running 98 to a dual p2-300 running Win2k Server. I figured that all would be a snap and I'd be back up and running in no time.

Win2k was/is a new OS for me so it took me abit to find were everything was. Then I started having troubles connecting to any other computers. I tried everything I could think of so I swapped out the nic card with another that was just like it. That did not solve my problem. So I went to a third Realtek based card but of a different chip type. This one worked better but still couldn't send the blocks nor anything else.

I went to a 2 day LAN party that kind of turned into 3 days away from working on the server. So tonight I put in yet another NIC card and all is well in pproxy LAN. I flushed it thru Jay's 43k worth or so. They should be at mika's by now.

I appologize for the delays. On the upside, I got everything back online tonight and it seems to be working properly.

Thank you for your patients.
