Thx for the fast replies, I wasn't really scared but rather curious about what the logs were saying.

Mine is running now with freebsd7, but the logs did show up also with fbsd6-stable. > > The cause is a housekeeping operation at the other side, which tears down > your connection, but for some reason the TLS session is not closed nicely. > Messages in the two logs should be similar to the following (say "auth1" is > your machine, "auth2" is the other node): > > auth2 Nov 06 13:18:50.660 [info] run_connection_housekeeping(): Marking > duplicate conn to 193.168.2.1:34066 obsolete (fd 16, 140 secs old). > auth2 Nov 06 13:18:50.660 [info] run_connection_housekeeping(): Expiring > non-used OR connection to fd 16 (193.168.2.1:34066) [Obsolete]. > auth1 Nov 06 13:18:50.661 [info] connection_read_to_buf(): tls error. > breaking (nickname auth2, address 193.168.2.2). All correct, the ones I cannot really understand are those: Jan 02 12:46:14.711 [debug] crypto error while performing RSA decryption: oaep decoding error (in rsa routines:RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP) Jan 02 12:46:14.711 [debug] crypto error while performing RSA decryption: padding check failed (in rsa routines:RSA_EAY_PRIVATE_DECRYPT) and the ones with: Jan 02 12:45:57.965 [info] TLS error: <syscall error while writing> (errno=1: Operation not permitted) Jan 02 12:45:57.965 [info] connection_handle_write(): tls error. breaking.

It may take some time until it is 'named' again, so the 7 authorities handle the node differently. How long does it take nowadays for a registered name to expire and the name to be used for (in my case the same) new machine ? > Alexander W.
