Gerry, I looked at Bigbird's LDM log file and I don't see anything untoward on Bigbird's part -- so I'm not sure what problem you're referring to. There are a lot of entries like this: Apr 20 16:14:05 bigbird penny(feed)[9270] ERROR: Couldn't flush connection; nullproc_6() failure to penny.met.tamu.edu: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection reset by peer but they indicate a problem with the remote host. This is verified by ldmping(1): [ldm@bigbird logs]$ ldmping !$ ldmping penny.met.tamu.edu Apr 20 16:11:02 INFO: State Elapsed Port Remote_Host rpc_stat Apr 20 16:11:02 ERROR: ADDRESSED 0.056982 0 penny.met.tamu.edu RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection reset by peer Apr 20 16:11:27 ERROR: SVC_UNAVAIL 0.003866 0 penny.met.tamu.edu RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection reset by peer Regards, Steve Emmerson Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: NPN-288500 Department: Support LDM Priority: Normal Status: Closed
