I have Dude 2.0 running on a windows XP computer which acts as a server. About once every day all the devices that probe using HTTP and Telnet timeout. The only way to bring them back online is to restart The Dude’s server. I’ve spent hours trying to figure this out. Any suggestions can be forwarded to sisaac@noraltacontrols.com. Thanks.
Problem solved. Turns out it was due to Windows XP Pro limiting the outbound TCP connections to 10/second. For anyone who is having the same problem a patch to remove that limit can be found by doing a quick google search.
