[Skimmertalk] Red Pitaya Woes at EL2BG

[N4ZR]

I really thought that we might be past the worst of our problems at 
EL2BG, but not yet.  Last Friday, he reported that the "heartbeat" on 
the Red Pitaya was no longer blinking.  Today, I logged on with 
Teamviewer, and to my surprise Skimserv was running and seemed 
completely normal.  It correctly identified the receiver and showed 
decoders on several bands, as well as 21 spots in the last 30 minutes.  
However, there was nothing other than normal "check-in" spots showing on 
Aggregator's Skimmer traffic tab. Moreover, the Red Pitaya did not 
appear on the EL2BG router's DHCP list.

I have experienced the problem of the "heartbeat" not starting when 
applying power to the Red Pitaya, but it has always responded to a 
further power cycle or two.

Any trouble-shooting ideas?  Why does Skimserv think it has been sending 
spots to the Agg when the Agg doesn't log them?
