any ideas ?

Daily quote exceeded means that you have downloaded all the workunits you can get for one day.

Since you have your computers hidden, yet there's at least one computer returning trickles, are you sure you didn't get any workunits? ;)

Unfortunately, some nice machines for some reason just don't like running the CPDN climate model. So I put in a "daily limit of 4" so that gives people a chance to try different overclocking settings (if they were overclocking too high). I imagine I should also keep a "total" counter as I did in old CPDN to just deny requests from machines that have already tried 50 workunits and failed etc.
