Problems with SetiQ or my Clients?

[Robor]

Long story made as short as possible...

Setup: SetiQ running on WinNT4 Server. About 50 Win9x, WinNT4 Workstation, and Win2000 clients. All clients are CL either as a service (NT/2000) or with SetiLog to hide the client.

Problem: My SetiQ starmap looks like a christmas tree with all the red circles (overdue clients). I'm talking probably 1/2 of my clients. I had a system crash (my work system) and haven't had the time to install SetiWatch and add all my clients so I really can't monitor my fleet. I was running an older version of GUI SetiQ but updated to the latest late last week due to this problem. I hoped that would fix it but it hasn't.

Thanks!

If I'm reading this right then it sounds like a problem I have...
Lots of my clients seems to download more than 1 WU which then never gets processed. I have to manually in SETIQ recycle them back into the queues using the Tools menu.
But, I use JsetiDoor too ( a Unix queue/proxy)., and it happens on this too...

I think it's a client problem, perhaps something to do with timing or a slight problem when using buffer programs...

Ahhh, so I'm not alone? Why all of the sudden though? I used to use the starmap to identify a stalled client. Now it's useless. I recycled all of my long overdue WU's a while back. Now the problem has resurfaced under the newest SetiQ. Oh well, I hope it's something that will go away. At least my production seems to be around where it should be. I'm a little lower than normal (about 10-15 WU/day) so I know I've probably got some stalled clients. Not much I can do right now though. Too busy at work but with the job market today that's a good thing.
