thanks for the reply...I do have windows firewall and hardware firewall and had opened both the ports for tcp and udp...no antivirus.
I do think it was a conflict in the xp 6.5.1 and 6.5.2 installed on a second hhard drive in vista. Uninstalled both, reinstalled 6.5.2 in vista under no d:slimserver rather than prgram files, reset factory defaults on squeeze, by unplugging and holding add+, reconnecting and everything was a - ok. -- dfetzer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dfetzer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3931 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32578 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
