davmor3Broadband Good service  and this with a big green tick is a LIE! on the status page the unplanned outage was reported at 20:25 last night and is still out meaning nobody in this area has internet08:48

DJonesAh rubbish, anybody ever heard of a peer to peer networked app that won't actually work across a wireless network, developers claim it'll only run with a wired connection on Windows12:16
jpdsDJones: What kind of protocol is it using?12:17
DJonescarrier pigeon12:19
DJonesSomething written in dark ages of Windows 3.0 I think, won't run on a server configured with domains (unless its windows server 2003), will only run if its installed on a standard desktop and everybody else connects to that machine12:20
DJonesBasically an accounts package that has multiple depots, but the depots have to have their own individual instance running at the depot, if head office want to see live data, we have to connect bia logmein to take control of a computer at the depot, it does upload the data overnight to a head office installation, but data is always 24 hours out of date12:23
* zmoylan-pi used a ftp client in dos to link locations like that in 90s :-)12:24
zmoylan-pi40 video shops spread across the country with sales numbers for head office12:25
awilkinsDJones, Is it an MTU thing12:26
awilkinsWireless networks often have a smaller MTU than wired12:26
jpdsWhy would an app care about the layers above it.12:27
DJonesawilkins: I've no idea, just a very poor system12:27
awilkinsThe "Only runs on a desktop" thing is probably because it has  GUI and depends on UI events to work12:27
zmoylan-pior it's using some pre sql wacky database sub system...12:29
DJonesawilkins: Nah, can't even just put the data on the server12:29
awilkinsHeh, been there12:29
awilkinsInterface processes written in VB3 that only run on the desktop of a 32-bit machine12:29
DJonesLooks like it is ftp zmoylan-pi12:29
awilkinsAnd use Jet 2.5 databases12:29
zmoylan-piah... jet...12:30
* zmoylan-pi casts ward stupidity12:30
DJonesI think it may be written using delphi12:32
zmoylan-piand the person has since moved on and noone understands how it works...? :-)12:33
DJonesNot even close, the guy behind it is still at the company12:33
DJonesNo matter what we ask, we just get told, no it can't do that12:34
zmoylan-pihmmmmmm, when i was asked for an export data option by the mainframe boys i had it written by the time my boss had made it back to his desk :-D12:34
DJones3 months more and then we get our own cutom built application by internal developers12:35
DJonesHeh, I'm quite impressed that their base is in a place called "crapstone" though, suits the system perfectly12:38
brobostigoni have had to temporerily stop pisg on my server, while i sort out some problems on it, so channel stats wont update for abit, to warn everyone.12:38
daftykinsdiddledan: psst15:09
