Multiplayer IP Server

When I try connecting to the FS9 multiplayer server (127.0.0.1) I click search and no sessionsappear. Just wondering if the server is down, or ifmaybe the problem is on my end.Thanks in advance,Slugger

Is it first time you try enjoy Vatsim and to login ?Or did you suddenly get the problem but previous was OK ?Have you read Pilot Resources Center -> Basic Pilot Training ->VATSIM 103 - VATSIM Software Setup ?Do you have firewalls of any kind, such as XP or other firewallin computer, or a router outside computer ?As I understand there is several servers, and Ialways could Join in FS9 multiplayer.Lennart Vedin SAS202

Lennart:Thanks for the prompt reply.This is a new problem. I've been flying on Vatsim for several months now without any problem.I've also been flying on the Hovercontrol server withoutany problem, but it's still working just fine.Regards,Slugger

Lennart:Figured out the problem. Using the Hovercontrol server asmuch as I have been lately, I was forgetting to start SB Relaybefore entering the FS9 Multiplayer session. Hovercontrol doesn'trequire this extra step. (duh!)Sorry for the inconvenience.Best,Slugger
