OR type in localhost, leave password empty, hit ok OR type in 127.0.0.1, leave password empty, hit OK ID: 202650 ·

Rom Wrote: Howdy gang, I've built a new build which tries and rpc before considering the connection good. I believe this will address the issue where the manager doesn't start the core client. I believe the reason that the manager wasn't starting the core client was that the manager was successful in opening a socket against another application. Anyways, this build works against my notebook okay, but as a sanity test can you all whack at it for a bit? I've updated the test reporting system with build 5.2.14. Let us know if you spot anything weird. ----- Rom ID: 202682 ·

It has trouble connecting to other puters on same network. IF you try to use the "select computer" option to connect to other puters on your network it may fail. Otherwise, stick with it until you have problems or a new one comes out. We're currently testing 5.3.2. I've already found flaws in it which should be ironed out by the next "official release" tony ID: 209666 ·
