i mentioned above that im running 9 apr (i downloaded today)
system overview tells me:
Version 1.0.1-SNAPSHOT-03-27-2007
built on Sun Apr 8 18:57:04 EDT 2007is what i seem to be running
if that is not the snapshot you recommending then im lost :Dthanks

This bug was fixed long ago, I don't understand why you are seeing it.
Might want to reinstall.
-
im coming from 14 feb snapshot and i have never run any other snapshot
now when you say reinstall how do i do the backup of config.xml
surely its contents changes between snapshots
???
-
Diagnostics -> Backup
It will work fine.
-
but the thing is when i first tried timebased snapshots (while it was still work in progress) and my machine stopped responding
i reinstalled with released iso then ran 14feb snapshot(what i was before timebased rules) then restored backup and this weekend i tried time rules again with latest snapshot and you saying i must reinstall again
maybe its better if next weekend i save html copies of each config gui page and reinstall iso(1 with current snapshot inc) and manually restore my config bit by bit page by page
cause surely if i just recently reinstalled then something wrong with my backup :-\
thanks for your time ;)

I just reproduced this problem. I'll try to get it fixed.
-
was it something wrong with 14feb :-* snapshot?
-
Yes. But it was not Feb, it was March.
Just fixed it. Will be releasing 1.2 beta soon. You will want to wait until then.

Well if anyone is interested how im using all of this (my setup)
i got 3 x WAN
and 2 x failover and 1 x load balance1st wan = ADSL 512kbps/256kbps uncapped(very little bandiwdth supply in south africa) = fixed cost = provided by 'Internet Solutions'
2nd wan = 802.11a/g 4mbps (at its best of times but atm its just tiny bit faster then above mentioned adsl) = 7gb then after that cost per mb = wireless Linked back to local 'Internet Solutions' branch
3rd wan = 1mbps = link to neighbouring company hosting our web servers = cost per mb = from neighboring company laser link back to local 'Internet Solutions' branch1st failover = 1st to 2nd to 3rd
2nd failover = 2nd to 1st to 3rd
balance = 1st and 2nd and 2rdnow normally i have select few take 2nd failover option (faster)
else everyone takes 1st failover (cheaper)
never really use the balancenow surelly it would be a good idea to put a schedule on all rules so that at night everyone can only go out the fixed cost adsl incase people run downloads at night and run our cost per mb bills up
i havent had any problems with the failover feature :) very nice to have
