hub server issue

Which hub software is the best? Where can I find script XXX? Discuss it here...(no, this is not for advertising your hub...)

hub server issue

Post by IGS » 2004-06-29 17:08

Okay let me start by saying that I have searched the forums and haven't come across this problem here. If I missed it, I'm sorry.

I run a hub using NeoModus DC 1.025 (had trouble with 2.0)
WinXP Home
Linksys router (with appropriate ports open)
Sygate TPF
cable connection

My problem is after the server has been running for 12 hours or so, I get the message:
tmrSlowBGWork_Timer:No buffer space is available and eventually the server starts giving the 'refused by target machine' error to people. Then I reboot and everything is fine for another 12 hours or so.

Can anyone help, the folks on the hub are getting a little upset by this as am I.

Just for clarification, is this message being given by the hub software or by Windows?

The world is coming to an end. Please log off.

The hub software.

Sometimes, but not always.

I should also say that the computer the hub is running on has minimal other programs on it, it's basically dedicated to the hub.

There are two other choices for Windows Hub software you might want to try: Yhub and Ptokax.

Thanks and actually I'm already considering switching to one of those if I can't get this issue cleared up. But before I go doing that I'd like to be reasonably sure that either of those programs won't do the same thing this one is. Otherwise I'd just as soon stay with what I have since it's all set up and scripted the way I need it to be.

Well, you're seeing a Visual Basic error of some sort from NMDC. Ptokax and Yhub are different programs (and not in VB, but that's beside the point), so you won't see the NMDC error in them.

You could also try SDCH, which is similar to NMDCH since it also uses vbscripts. But the bottom line is definately: change hubsoft.

Okay that makes sense to me. Just too bad there isn't some way to fix this issue I'm having. So I guess that means I'll be playing around with hub software this weekend. :)

Thanks for your help everyone, it's greatly appreciated.
