I was able to connect about an hour and a half later. Talked to Relorian, he was using the dns address to connect, and no problem, I got the IP from him and was going to try that, but bingo boingo I connected again. I guess it must've been something wrong with my connection at work, though it's been nothing but reliable. shrug I dunno

Relorian gave you the IP? Now you can hack into his computer! No! This nonsense must be stopped!

ok am I wrong in thinking that 123.456.789.00 is an IP?

ping legion.shacknet.nu cough,

[Reckless]

lol, you can grab the ip from any dns addy. der

[Hobo_Bill]

Ok, so I'm not stupid. Whew.. had me worried for a second..

[Speed]

grin, I was trying to make a point, but it went over peoples heads. Everyone's always getting bent out of shape about posting an IP, when you can simply ping the dns or tracert it.

[Blunt]

how do i ping it?

[Cheech]

open a ms dos prompt, type ping (telnet addy) or tracert (telnet addy)
