  • Busy Node?

    From Jeff Smith@1:282/1031 to All on Sun Aug 25 11:33:40 2019
    Hello There,

    Recently (Occasionally in last couple days) I have been getting "No more free nodes" when selecting particular echos to read via the web BBBS interface. That
    is to state that I can log in to BBBS and select echos to read. But if I select
    certain echos (Haven't checked if the certain echos are static) I get a "No more free nodes" response. I can go back to the echo listing menu and select a different echo to read. This seems really odd behavior to me. Anyone else ever experience this?

    Is it possible that the all nodes busy condition is just a momentary BBBS condition that appears and disappears while I am logged in and momentarily triggers the "No more free nodes" response?

    I get that rarely... when all the nodes I've purchased are tied up (users, hackers, etc.) and then some bot hits.. :(

    Kim will have to answer that for you.... I think he's away right now since I can't connect to his system.

    Take care,
    Janis
