Re: Search Server!
I will Test it now! I have been using my Domain name for the company (which probably isn't the best idea) instead fo the IP. I will try that Asap and get back to you!

Re: Search Server!
Yeah that works for me as well. I cannot believe the issue was so small and easy and had nothing to do with the way we set up our servers!
Re: Search Server!
Make sure the clients are accessing the server by IP (in the client.ini of mXI say) and not by machine name (www.blablaba.com or this-is-my-machine-name-in-my-network). The client WILL connect but any search will fail as mXI and ffxi-boot does not seems to do any DNS translations.
Re: Search Server!
This seems like an odd issue, since mXI translates the DNS properly, if you watch the log it shows "resolving ##.##.###.##" and shows the IP, despite the name server I was using.

Re: Search Server!
Someone posted the source code for FFXI-Boot on the old forum, which I posted somewhere on the new forum. You're welcome to "pop the hood" if you'd like. I'm sure no one would complain about it being fixed.

Re: Search Server!
Unfortunately C++ is definately not my language, I know VB.NET so I understand basics.. But nothing crazy.
That being said, the only thing that needs to be changed is (psuedocode):
- server = blank.com (in config)
Program:
server = blank.com
get ip blank.com (it already does this as you'll notice the IP address shows up in the console even if you put in a domain name).
so once it gets ip, it renames server to server = getip(ipaddress)
then proceeds with connection? I dunno, it makes almost no sense why it wouldn't work as is right now though... DNS translation is designed to make IP addresses into names, so its just going the opposite way, essentially, the IP address = the name.
Haha nevermind, fixed:

Re: Search Server!
Ok My Ip Address is 50.129.166.71
so once you set your config files to your IP address
you then find your ffxi-boot.ini and set the IP to the IP
the ffxi-boot.exe is the problem it can not read domain names for AH its not the server.
Really wish I could get the ffxi-boot scr
