Can't connect to IM. RESOLVED (NO REPRO)
Numsgil:
Peter, you used to be able to connect, right? When did the problem start? Try running an older version and see if the older version works (try version j, k, l, something in that range).
Peter:
Yes, I used to be connected, even before FP takes all.
The problem started at my guesing atleast something like a week ago. Older versions don't seem to work eather.
And a question, does the clicking on the link I posted in the first post ( ftp://darwinbots.serveftp.com ), does it bring you to something, do you get some popup or anything, all I get is, and my guesing is, that it isn't good. For good notice I used to connect well to other ftp-servers.

Could not connect. FTP server may be too busy.

I just get a timeout error when clicking on that link. But I can connect to DB IM fine.
Numsgil:
The intsett file isn't used anymore as far as I know. ServeFTP is a service that lets a user set up a DNS lookup for their IP. It would be used if the FTP server was running on someone's home computer and that person didn't have a static IP.
I believe that serveFTP account is from back when Carlo had a FTP server running. It has nothing to do with modern internet sharing.

This is correct. With the exception of the Internet Name (e.g. Peter, EricL3, Bot House) everything in the internet ini file is ignored currently. The actual paramters - server name, password, etc. - are hard coded in the exe a present for security reasons. I haven't done away with the internet ini file as that is where the settings will live again once I implement multple internet modes, ad hoc mode and when we move off the web server and on to a real FTP service. The internal hard coding is temporary.
Sorry I didn't tmake this clear earlier. Been a busy day.
