|    Polling a Node?    |
|    02 Feb 18 21:37:28    |
      Hello There,              I have noticed a situation regarding polling that I was curious about. I have       setup a system on another PC here. I have added the necessary [Node Remap]       connection info.              The problem is that if I do a manual poll as in Alt-P the poll is executed as       expected. Once completed it is executed again, and again, and again,...              I am forced to terminate the poll by issuing the command bbbs bom d .       At which point the polling terminates.              The question that occurs to me is BBBS is possibly not seeing the poll as       successful and continues to keep trying. Or, the polled system isn't       responding in a manner that BBBS sees as successful and so BBBS retries.              Anyone else seen this type of behavior?                     Jeff              --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Toy-3        * Origin: The Ouija Board (1:282/1031)    |
