Five computers are working fine but one computer, with no work done yet, presented the message a number of times..deferring communication for about one day and a few hours,next line read 23 hours, etc. What does this mean? Do I have to keep the computers on line most of the time in order to constantly get new work assignments? All computers run Windows X Home, CPU (1)1.8 and (5)2.4Ghz with 256 memory.

Do I have to wait now about 11 hours before that computer contacts home base again for additional information? ID: 4545 · Reply Quote

Looking at your computers <a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/hosts_user.php?userid=19203">here</a> you've got 6 that have trickled within the past 13 hours and one that hasn't trickled at all. What's really strange is that #42303 has uploaded 12 trickles but has no credits and #42096 has been credited for 12 trickles but it's the one with no trickles. > ONE OTHER COMPUTER,WORKING ON A TASK SHOWING A MESSAGE THATS STATES, DEFERRING > COMMUNICATION FOR 17 MINUTES, ERROR-113. Error -113 is a host name resolution problem. There should be further details in the message to help identify the failure condition that applies in your case. <a href="http://www.teampicard.net"><img src="http://www.teampicard.net/templates/fisubice/images/phpbb2_logo.jpg"></a><a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/team_display.php?teamid=3">Join us here</a> ID: 4586 · Reply Quote
