Since I switched to the unstable from the latest stable at least my conenction failures/to connection successes stays within the same number of digits. On the XP machine it was like 2000 failed/60 successful and I got RNF's like all the time. I just plopped the unstable JAR onto my freeBSD install (it's even a slower processor than my parents' XP athlon) and the connection failures runs closer to 50% rather than 90%. 1. Both systems knew the router WAN IP 2. both systems were 'virtual apped' from the router 3. both systems used the assign virtual app machine 4. both system were properly directed those ports via the router My XP FRED had an interesting problem too http://localhost:8888 worked but http://127.x.y.z:8888 didn't This meant I had to manually open the gateway because the open gateway option on the system try bunny would alwyas try to go to 127.0.0.1 _______________________________________________ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
