I'm having the same problem. I'm trying to get FS Commander9 and VAFS to work w/Wide FS Client on laptop, which has Vista on it.

This info is from the laptop running WideFS
On my PC that has Flight Sim 9 on it, it has XP Professional, Wide Server on it.
Both computers show connected (Wide Server shows 1 connected, Wide FS shows connected)...FS Commander and VAFS isn't detecting Flight Sim 9
The computers are showing in the same network group
Both have FSUPIC (regiestered). Both have version 3.984.
I have dropped the firewalls on both to get the info to go between them, no luck. Computers still show connected, but VAFS and FS Commander9 not connecting to Flight sim
I am not a computer pro, I drive a truck for a living. So please be patience as I try to understand
Thank you for your help
