Re: POP server goes up and down

Thanks for that help on the IPs

so my config looks like this now...

listen pop_proxy xxx.xxx.xxx.147:110

      maxconn 500
       mode tcp
        log global
       balance roundrobin

        # client time-out set to 2mn30.
        clitimeout  150000

        # server time-out set to 30s.
        srvtimeout  30000

        contimeout  4000

       server peter xxx..xxx.xxx.158:110 check inter 5000 fall 4 rise 1
       server joe xxx.xxx.xxx149:110  check inter 5000 fall 4 rise 1
       stats enable

Also would i see any of these types of warnings or errors in the log file...

my log file only shows notices....
