[Dxspider-support] Disconnects not being dropped?

[John Clayton]

Hi Dirk

There seems to be a problem with disconnects not being dropped through 
the network.

Due to a local node problem GB7DXC was disconnected from GB7BAA and 
sometime later I re-routed the connect to GB7WDX (over RF). When the 
local problem was sorted, I disconnected GB7DXC from GB7WDX and G8MZV 
was logged on at GB7BAA to see when GB7DXC cleared from the network so 
that I could reconnect it to GB7BAA. Well over an hour later, GB7DXC, 
according to GB7BAA was still connected to GB7WDX - although connecting 
to GB7WDX as a user and doing SH/U GB7DXC showed no sign of GB7DXC on 
the network at all.

This also happened when G8MZV logged off from GB7BAA - a SH/CONFIG 
GB7BAA on GB7WDX continued to show G8MZV as connected to GB7BAA.

Is this because some of the UK nodes are connecting to multiple nodes 
(if so, any idea why they should?) or is there a problem with Spider 
dropping connects - or passing on that connects have dropped?

Many thanks for any info.

Cheers.

John, G4PDQ.
