Hi Guys,
since this is my very first post in this forum, I would like to introduce myself first. I live in Germany and I am addicted to MC since V11.0. I am impressed by the power of this application, even if I step by step find some weakness inside. I am using an iPod Video and I am using several PCs with one central network share for music.
Now I would like to ask your support with this issue:
I am using Windows Server 2003, because I have my own servers for ftp, www and mail running. Of cause it's also my fileserver for my other PCs in the house. While I was using network shares to access my movies and music files I decided to run library server on my Win2003 also. That's why I bought "FireDaemon", a cool software that allows to run any application as a service. I installed MC11.1 on all computers and installed the MC11.exe in system32 as a service.
For a few weeks this worked out fantastic. The server was up and running and after a restart of Win2003 the service was started again. All my clients had connected to the server without a problem. BUT since one week the clients can not find the server anymore. Even if I hardcode the port on library server and the clients they are not able to find each other.
If I logon to my Win2003 and start MC11 the server inside MC is started probably and my clients will connect again.
I haven't changed anything, tried to re-install MC11, FireDaemon and even installed the latest beta-release.
Any ideas?
