8.3.5 - Mac cannot get Windows status

Post by jonault »

I have two computers running 8.3.5, one Windows 11 and the other an M1 Mac (Sonoma 14.4.1); both machines running the current Firefox (125.0.2). Both computers are listed in Account Settings on both machines. Both machines are on the same LAN (192.168.0.x).

The Windows computer can see the Mac & report its folding status, but the Mac cannot get the status of the Windows machine, it reports it as "DISCONNECTED" and grayed out. I checked the firewall settings on the Windows machine & it seems to be set to allow incoming connections for fahclient.

Does it connect if you restart the windows client?

This sounds like the node disconnect at 0:00 UTC bug.

My Macs disconnect for about 2.5 minutes at zero hours. But they always seem to reconnect on their own.

This has been going on for several days, it wasn't just a momentary disconnect. But rebooting my Windows machine cleared it up. I don't know why I didn't think to try that. Thanks!
