Viva le MLAT! I briefly looked at the code on github for the client / server and I don't see where the username is important for anything but identifying a mlat-client so a server operator can give support.
Same problem like recently, only affecting MLAT. Connection to the server is just kept for a few seconds (probably exchanging key information - thus I'm still on the matrix), then connection gets lost - repeat every 30 or so seconds.
Do you know if they have monitoring for this kind of stuff or is there a recommended way to inform them?
When one of the MLAT servers CPU's is spiked at 100%, sometimes a server won't accept connections or will drop connections. It usually a short term issue. and gets load balanced out. We do montior them them but I need to work on improving the whole shabang! $ and time.
