I'm get a server, or so I thought.

So I need to register a new nick on my serial, I deleted one of my old ones, and then tried several different names that aren't taken, I think, not sure tho.

But the thing is, whenever I try to take one it works fine and server list is empty as it should be since the name is taken.

And when I log on with my main nick then the list shows, just fine.

But when I try to register a new nick it always refuses, either timed out or firewall negotiation failed.
It can't be the firewall, checked that one.

But my bro is playing on another computer right now on a nick that is registered on my serial, could it be possible that he needs to log off so that the serial nicks 'n all can be edited?

If no, then what could the problem be?

It's quite likely that you need to have exclusive access to your account (in terms of serial) when doing something like that. That's how most implementations would probably do it.


Renguard is a wonderful initiative

Well, atleast I have a nick for it, but when I've downloaded the Renegade FDS 1.037 and fill out every field at the third step (nickname, password, confirming password and serial) but I can't click next. :S

Go read the "FDS serials and XWIS" topic in Win32 FDS support forum. Smile

Already done that, done what's in there too.

My nick/pass is correct too.

EDIT: Reset the password, now working.
