Hi gang, this evening I got a cable modem, and now I am of course interested in trying VROC races. But how to start? What to read first, and what to do then? Well, of course I know: practice, practice and practice... :-) I am also using the firewall by ZoneAlarm, I guess that might cause some problems? And it really would be nice to find somebody near my time zone, Finland UTC-2:00, just for testing the connection before getting to real races... Any fellow Finns? Arto
Turn OFF the firewall while racing. Either that or muck around for weeks finding the proper ports to open and close. EagleWoman's site is the best place to begin setting your system up for GPL. http://alison.simracing.com/gpl/ I hope you have sent a lovely card to your family, they will miss you. dave henrie "Arto Wikla" <
Don't turn it of just click 'allow server' for GPL in the programs section of Zone Labs. It works just fine. Dave Henrie wrote:
