Have you noticed any difference in success depending on how you're<br>
specifying the duration? (eg, "1d" vs "24h", etc.?)<br>
<br>
There's one "magic value" relating to a full day when we're generating the<br>
ack code to begin with, but on walking through the module code I can't see<br>
how it would cause an effect like this.<br>
<br>
<br>
After the acknowledgement, the expiration time of the current one should<br>
be displayed on the status page for that test. Can you confirm that the<br>
pending date in those cases is what you'd expect it to be?<br>
<br>
Sort of grasping at straws here. I'll keep digging in, but so far things<br>
seem to be working correctly for me.<br>
<br>
