If you use the option "keep slow clients online", you will get something like this:


[BUF] che 1. SendBuffer overflow. Buffer cleared - user stays online.



That will do. :)

ya, what I wanna know is what causes that to happen.  Is it the fact that there is a bad connection between the client and the hub, or just that the hub has piss poor bandwidth?

[klownietklowniet]

I'm not sure.. but I think it has to do with timeouts.. and that can be due to poor connection aswell... or just a bad connection at a certain point...

[ptaczek]

The buffer overflow happen if the client (or hub) is unable to handle the dat throughput generated by the hub (by the client).

few reasons:

a) the hub's connection is maxed out
b) the client's connection is maxed out
c) there is some temporary drop-out on the link between hub and client

and variations of that above.

Hi,

I have this problem with very few users and most of the time, it works out correctly. Only one user keep getting an overflow and a subsequent disconnection, but for some reason he can't reconnect...   The hub disconnects him, but his session is kept alive for hours after that.   What could be causing this?  Btw, I did enable the 'keep slow clients online'

regards,
Pieltre

tell him 2 start using bcdc++ and limit his upload a tiny bit.
if he has 25KB/s up then set the limiter to 22KB/s.
should solve his problem.
