Hi everyone,

I'm posting here since on the internet there is not much documentation for it,

I want to setup a Hotline service on my bbs to allow connections thru a hotline

client, the problem is, once i enabled the service and attempted a connection

with many hotline clients the server just refuses it, (it's not a ports issue

since it's running on a VPS with all ports open) I tried to look up for answers

on the internet but other than the synchronet wiki page showing the default

configuration i did not find anything useful,

does anyone have any informations about it?

I appreciate all the help you can give me.

Thanks

EDIT: by hotline client i mean something like http://ubersoft.org/pitbullpro/

Check that the proper TCP port is actually bound and listening (e.g. using netstat or similar tool on the server). Check the server log output for any errors. Try using a network diagnostic tool (like netcat) to attempt a simple TCP connection to the port/address in question rather than using a special client.
