You've only shown the client log. That's only half the story. Does the WideServer Log show anything useful?

The client seems to be just hitting a brick wall. Maybe a firewall problem in the Server? Possibly something you've updated, or automatic windows updates?

There's no errors logged, but I've noticed that with firewall problems. Rather than return anything , which I assume might lead an attacker to think there's something there, you just getnothing. No response, nothing.

But look at the server log. then check your firewall.

Regards,

Pete

Checked in Norton, FSX is ok, will have a look at other machine in morner to make sure that Wideclient is allowed through ok?

Shows the same -- just nothing reaching it from Wideclient. It does show you are using FSX though, which may have been useful information in the first place? ;-)

I notice the Server name is spelled HOME-SERVER is the Server but home-Server in the client. Not sure if that makes any difference 9it does get the IP address -- is that correct), but I have been told of one case, in Windows Vista, where the case of the letters in the names was relevant.

Can I see the Wideclient.INI file please?

Regards

Pete

Hi Pete

Sever is Home-Server, client is Flight-Server, anyway checked the firewalls, and for some reason windows has turned off Norton and switched its own on, have rectified this and all works ok now. Should have checked the most obvious in the first place, but lesson learnt, thabks for help though

Paul :lol:
