im on and its running fine - but ive had it running for several days now - thats prolly why. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
got it working now, thanks Dael |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
okay, i think i fixed it, the only problem now is that i've changed the "hosts" file to hosts.txt in order to edit it.. and now that i've done that it seems it wont switch out of this format even when i just change the name to hosts without .txt on the end... there's probably a really easy way to do this... yes? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no worries pomme, glad I could help |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah i think just right click on it and choose "rename" then take off the extention. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Thanks Dael, it worked for me too! |

There was a global message that came through about this within the last 8 hours explaining that you should download that new client Thursday, September 04, 2003 A temporary DNS fix client is available here. I recommend you backup your *.cfg files before you install this, just in case. If clicking directly on the link doesn't work, try right-clicking it and selecting "save...", that should do the trick. Nir 12:12 AM *note* i have been connected for forever now and have had not to do this yet. If you are running the old client then you will have to update to my understanding. |

what are .cfg files? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

real nice. |

|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ah blow it out yer arse. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how about this, tibbar: (right-click, save target and you don't have to think about *.cfg files anymore - read: idiot-proof method) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i figured it out, but thanks anyway. sometimes theres a buggy... how many drivers does a buggy have? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
are you just supposed to open that .exe-file and install it and then everything is fixed? i cant get it to work... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, run the .exe file - its just like installing a new version of soulseek (it is actually). viktor, do you get an error when you run the .exe file? there's also another solution posted at the slsk forum, i'll post it next :P |

http://firetrack.no-ip.org/store/temp/fixhosts.bat save that file and run it. reboot. that's it! (WAS: 1. right click here 2. choose save target as... 3. in the file name box, change hosts.txt to hosts. 4. on windows 95/98/me save the file in c:\windows on windows nt/2k/xp/2k3 save the file in c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc if you are prompted to overwrite an existing file, say yes. 5. reboot. congratulations! ISSUES!! - on win9x, you may be unable to save a file without an extension. if this occurs, simply browse to c:\windows and rename hosts.txt to hosts, without any extension. say "yes" to any kind of warnings that pop up. - if windows XP may not give you access to the file. the file may be read-only. browse to c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc, right click the hosts file, choose properties, and uncheck the read-only attribute. |
