"You are not connected to the internet" error with

[mda2376]

Hi all

I recently added a 2nd 2.4ghz p4 xeon processor in my server and upgraded my kernel from 2.4.20 to 2.5.66 (for the proper p4 hyperthreading support), but now I strangely get a "You are not connected to the internet" error when trying to connect to the server.

Pinging www.mersenne.org works fine. Any ideas? Please let me know as I would love to get that 2nd processor to work on another 10m digit prime, and my first chip is scheduled to return its first 10m digit prime this weekend!

Thanks
Matt

Probably the 2.5 kernels have a little different format for the /proc filesystem, maybe a little experimenting with this options from undoc.txt could help you further

From undoc.txt:
Mprime supports 4 different ways of checking if your computer is connected
to the internet. Set RouteRequired=n in primenet.ini. The following
values of n are supported. The last entry is what happens if RouteRequired
is not given.
0: Assume computer is always connected
1: Assume connected if there is an entry in /proc/net/route
other than for the loopback device.
2: Assume connected if there is an entry in /proc/net/route
with a netmask of 00000000.
none: Same as 2 except that if /proc/net/route is unreadable
mprime assumes computer is connected.
