Doesn't look like this made its way into the current alfa code. (We must migrated to a new servers and this bit me again, so I thought I'd give it a bump).

Hi Henrik,

We've had a problem with the 'worst' conn method for a while now, and I've never got around to reporting or looking into it. Basically what happens is that a host with multiple IP addresses and the 'worst' conn method wont report any status changes (it will always be green, even if one or all of its ips are unpingable).

I think I've fixed this, it was a pretty simple bug; on line 1383 of bbtest-net.c, I changed 'countasdown = 0;' to 'countasdown = 1;'. I didn't really investigate the ramifications of what this change might have on the rest of the code, so let me know if I'm way off base. (I know it did fix the worst issue, though, because 3 of our multi-interface sites with unpingable ifcs immediately went red).
