What's going wrong ? True that we have had a network failure on sunday morning, but everything is going fine now since sunday 4 pm....

Any suggestions ?

Thanks

Re: "can't resolve hostname" on several machines
Have you tried restarting BOINC?

If that fails, please tell us about your OS and security software. You could try rebooting, too.

Re: "can't resolve hostname" on several machines
BOINC sometimes remembers outdated information i.e. does not refresh IP/DNS. The usual trick, to include booting a router if you have any is in the last post of this thread:

Boot Windows.

Not aware of a WCG network failure during the weekend.

Re: "can't resolve hostname" on several machines
Hi,

Thanks back to business :-) Actually, closing and starting again the client didn't fix it. I had to manually send the transfers waiting, then do an update on my project and everything started again fine.

Thx.
