I have a working system that had been running just fine since I turned it on for the winter a week ago when it got cooler. But a couple of hours ago, it gave me this:

Let me know when I should fire it back up.

Server 171.64.65.102 is rejecting connections and the only other server with ATI WUs is 171.64.65.103 which is low on WUs right now. I've reported it to the server's owner.

a) I've also been locked out of sending my last WU and retrieving my next. See latest snippet, and when I started to send the latest unit at 4:19.

b) What happened to the 384 point WUs that this server used to send out? Since 20 Nov, I've gotten nothing but an unbroken string of twenty six 511 point WUs for my ATI 4670.

Thanks.

There's no answer to a question like that. Projects come and go without notice.

When a new project is added, it's because somebody on the science side put together a project to study a particular protein or a particular interaction. They don't pick projects with a particular number of points; the number of points depends on the complexity of the WU. When enough data has been collected on a particular project, new assignments are no longer issued and the results are analyzed off-line. That analysis may lead to a scientific paper or it may lead to some new questions being asked about areas that were not covered in the original analysis -- or if something totally unexpected is encountered, a whole new study may be launched.

This seems to have been fixed. Hopefully you'll be returning WUs and getting new assignments now.

That got it going again. TKS
