Clients are connecting from North/South America to the US server, from Europe to the German serer, and from Asia/Australia to the Korean server. This is all happening on PlanetLab, which is sometimes heavily oversubscribed. In short, any number of bad things could be happening that cause us to lose connectivity.

You probably want a 4 sec tickTime and 60/40sec (so > settings of 15/10) for the init/sync limits (something like that, > depending on latencies/bandwidth you see) Interesting, I thought I was using the default config parameters with only a modified data directory and my own hostnames, but I see now that that defaults are larger. Those values should certainly be larger for the environment I'm running in. I'll leave them as they are for now to see if we can reproduce the problem, though I'll eventually need to fix them as my deadline approaches. :) > Probably reaching for straws but could you print "path", just to > confirm it's what you know it is? Sure, I can do this. I only have a single top-level znode though, so I don't think this is the problem, but it can't hurt to double check. -Kevin
