Sidney, have you tried setting --keepalive=300
I'll try that. What Michael says does make sense. I'm behind a NAT.
Is there a way of setting a port that the slave listens on? I can configure my NAT to let the slaves be designated servers on some port if I can make it a fixed port and assign a different port number to each of them. I'm sure if it is possible I could find it by RTFM, but I have not had a lot of time to learn about buildbot and twistd.
By the way I have to call twistd directly instead of buildbot in order to get everything to work in Cygwin and Win32. They need the -n option in order to run, and in Win32 I have to give it the -r win32, which I would have expected to be automatic when running a win32 buildbot.
Cygwin command: twistd -l - -n -f ../buildbot.tap Win32 command: twistd -l - -n -r win32 -f ..\buildbot.tap
