I tried to ping the partner ip and it was OK. I debugged the code where the connection is established. It worked this way. There is an MFC container with IDs (pointers to sockets). When a message is received, we look in the container for its ID to make sure from who the message is. The container has one item only and it is NULL. I found the place in the code where the item is initialized and put a bookmark. This piece of code was never invoked. I think that is because of multithreads or maybe something has been affected since then. That is why you get "Partnership File Not Found". I am trying to put that right. -Igor _______________________________________________ Kaboodle-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/kaboodle-devel
