[App_rpt-users] Reliability / Network Stability

[David Shaw]

Have you tried to diagnose the problem?

Sense you wrote the nodes in rpt.conf you wouldn't need a list from the
master servers. So my question is, does the other nodes have your node info
in their rpt.conf file? Have you tried mtr to test your nodes network? When
you try to connect what does the logs or command line output say?

Like to help,
