...PC Reservation crashes? I always wondered what would happen if the PC Reservation computer where to restart during the day with patrons logged onto the system, and now I know! All I was trying to do was surf the net on PC Res when I hit the homepage icon in the browser and whoomph, the screen went blank and the next thing you know we are rebooting. No one came screaming out of the tech lab, so folks who are logged on stay logged on. So far so good. Once the boot process finishes, PC Reservation automatically comes on, so that's also pretty easy. I walked around and the unused computers had a "Please Wait..." message where "Available" normally displays, but this fixed itself as soon as I cancelled the window and brought it back up (wiggle the mouse.)
The only real awkwardness I found is that I can't extend time on computers that were logged on at the time of the crash. I get the message (on PC Res) "Could not locate client records in the internal connections list." For new logins, this is not a problem, as I ascertained by experiment. But does anybody know how to refresh this "internal connections" list? I think after about 20 minutes it may have started to do this on its own, but I could find no tool or utility that would work. Thank, Andy
