I can successfully connect but get no work unit. This has been going on for over 12 hours as of 042820111501Z.

Welcome to the forum, http://171.67.108.42:8080/

Has this always been server 171.67.108.42? I see only one attempt to connect and in 12 hours, there should be many, many more connection attempts, normally including connection attempts to other servers.

Were you running beta or adv?

I had just restarted the client with verbosity set to 9. I have three clients that can't get work at the moment and all three are trying to get work from 171.67.108.42 and no other. I compared the logs.

What I posted above is representative of all the log files.

Hm, this is using the advmethods flag? It seems the server may have been a bit low on jobs, I've increased them now, we'll see if that helps. It's strange that it only tries to connect to 171.67.108.42, it's supposed to start trying other servers if one keeps failing

I restarted the clients and got WUs immediately.

Thanks.
