1) Questions and Answers : Preferences : Failure to connect to Sheduler (Message 26435)

Yep, have read the rules and also spoken to IT many times on the project, they also participate in different things. They said it was fine a few years back when I started running the orig seti at a different location.

I also asked them about 3 weeks ago (after a question from the boss) if our policy has changed and was it all still okay. Answer was YES, no problem.

I will wait another couple of days and ask our IT guy when he comes in from leave. At this stage I am at a loss to explain why I no longer able to connect after the 22nd December.

Thanks for the link.

I have checked and the windows firewall is not running. Our network does use a Symantec Antivirus and when I double click on the icon I am unable to make any changes (everything is ghosted) probably so people like me don\'t do silly things.

Pretty much have no idea now when it comes to this stuff, so I think I really am going to have to bail from the whole shebang. :(

okay just tried to attach seti to boinc, failed as well, so somethinghas happened somewhere.

mmm can\'t seem to find the issue out. Might end up just canning the whole lot I think.

All my other network activity is fine and connection to the net is not an issue. I have not changed anything on my PC, that does not mean that IT hasn\'t done it though :(

I have checked the connections in the boinic manager and all looks good there. I thought I connected using a HTTP proxy I have not changed anything. It is set to port 80 and the address field has a proxy address for here at work ( I put that in hoping it would work, and it failed). Is that correct. Should the address field have something different in it ?? I have now checked my seti details and it seems I don\'t connect via a proxy so have left all those fields blank (i.e set them up the same way seti is set up). I still seem to have the problem.

Okay I think I am a small fry in all of this and not all that computer literate, however I am having issues connecting to request new work.

Nothing has been changed in my computer set up or internet connection. Boinic manager won\'t connect. I have tried various combinations in the connections tab and nothing has worked.

Yep, had a play with that overnight and it dosen\'t seem to make a difference either way.

it is still doing the 20minute thing. My guess is it\'s a network thing.

Anyway thanks for your help and I guess I will have to live with it until I can find a way to hack around our network preferences.

Okay version is 5.4.9 and as a single user.

This morning when I came in the screen saver was again working, so maybe it is taking forver to kick in, which is also very very strange as it used to come on after a couple of minutes.

Not sure if I have changed anything by accident in trying to fix it.
I think maybe it\'s a windows thing. I can\'t even get a standard screensaver to kick in now.

Ohhh nooooooo, I am so computer stupid

Okay I have had a read through the threads and can\'t really find the answer I need.

My screen saver will not work any more at all. I know you shouldn\'t run the screensaver but I like it.

I have not suspended the project and Boinc is set to my preferences which is set to run after 3 minutes of no activity.

Messages tell me that “Suspending network activity - user is active”. The computer was NOT being used.

can someone help?



Was working fine this morning but all day I ahev been trying to fix.
