Author Topic: GDC Security Manager could not connect Justin Hamaker Film God Posts: 2253 From: Lakeport, CA USA Registered: Jan 2004 posted 10-06-2018 09:54 PM                        Last Saturday we had an issue where the Security Manager on our GDC server would not connect before opening. We tried multiple different reboots, including power cycling both the projector and the server. We were running a retro combination of movies at the time, but everything worked fine Friday night, with no indication of a problem. The projector is a Barco 32B 2K with a GDC HFR IMB. GDC software version is 9.00 build 447. We ran for our entire drive-in season on this build and never had an issue until our last night of the season. I had GDC look at the server logs and they did not see anything which might have caused the problem. Any ideas?  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-07-2018 12:04 PM                     Try replacing the network cables and do a board reseat  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-08-2018 03:05 PM                     Cables or network switch. If those are ok then the IMB is defective. Mark  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!

That is a direct connect between the server and Ethernet 2 on the IMB.  |  IP: Logged
