It seems like the buildbot needs even more hand-holding on Windows: it apparently doesn't survive a master stop/start cycle. While the Unix buildbots reconnect, the Windows one doesn't.

What makes us believe that?

The slave was reported as "idle" just before I restarted the master, and "offline" after the restart. From that, I inferred that the restart broke the connection.

My box was hibernating from 03:12 to 11:54 EST today, and couldn't have responded to anything during that period.

I see. So it is rather that the master doesn't see the slaves go away.

Regards, Martin
