Problem with Folding Servers

I have just updated by only 32bit machine to 64bit and when i went to start folding again i keep getting this message:
+ Could not get ID from server. Retrying...
[09:37:52] + Could not connect to Primary Assignment Server for ID
[09:37:52] + Could not connect to Secondary Assignment Server for ID

any suggestions

 

Can you ping the Stanford Assignment servers from the folding rig?

Try running these commands in a command prompt:

Code:

tracert assign.stanford.edu
tracert assign2.stanford.edu
tracert 171.65.103.93
tracert 171.64.65.121

Do they work?

Also, try opening these in your browser:

http://www.stanford.edu
http://assign2.stanford.edu
http://assign.stanford.edu:8080

You should just see "OK" in the browser window for the last 2.

Also, what anti-virus package is on the rig?

 

I assume you've tested network connectivity on ports 80 & 8080?

 

Cheers guys for your responses:
Ph4lanx - All tests passed

saspro - ports 80 and 8080 are open.

its weird because i have a machine next to this one which is send and receiving work correctly.

P.S i'm on linux so windows based solution will not work, I have seen the various IE suggestions and AVG

 

Reinstall the client?

 

Done and still no luck. Grr

 

What disty?
Have you tried running it as root?
What switches are you running?

 

Do you run a proxy or anything like that? Is perhaps the proxy accidentally set in the client.cfg or something?

You're not trying to run bigadv are you?

 

Fixed it. Thread: http://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=13064&p=145633#p145633 helped

I had turned off nscd, Enabled it and bang it could contact the server again.

My distro is fedora 12

hopefully google will index this for future generations

 

mines done the same...
