Hello all,

I was just setting up another slew of machines, 12 right now with maybe 20
to follow right away and maybe 30 more after that, (don't worry, I have
permission! :-) but I was running into a strange situation.

These machines are currently mine to tinker with, but I don't have network
connections for all of them at the moment.  No problem, I can use the manual
testing page at entropia.com to get worktodo files, but in the meanwhile,
they're not network connected.

Here's the problem.  They want to talk to the IPS...but without a network
connection, every time they try to connect, Prime95 crashes.

Hmmm...that's no good.

I fixed it by changing the communication method from RPC to HTTP...I suppose
that will work just fine, but since our firewall was passing RPC okay, I am
wondering if there are any long term benefits of one over the other.

And has anyone else noticed this bizarre behaviour?  I seem to recall a
thread regarding this on the mailing list before, but I'm not sure.

So RPC vs HTTP and then RPC crashing with no network connection.

Thanks folks,
Aaron
