  1. You should be able to connect through your internal IP, dchub://192.168.1.2 , all you need to do in your router is forwarding the hubport(411) to your internal IP(192.168.1.2) to let users connect.

    oh man................I love you it worked finally, after 1 year of not being able to login to the hub

    thanks for everyone's contribution to this thread, it was worth spending my time in the forum


  2. If the hub is on the same pc, find out it's IP, could be internal one (LAN), use the IP as addy.

    Make sure the hub is up and serving.

    IP can be found from windows command-line by typing ipconfig or ifconfig

    Make sure the hub accepts internal IP's in search on your profile

    yes my router IP is 92.96.95.133 and i usually use it to run the hub and accordingly try to login using APEX yet no result, my lan is 192.168.1.2 also

    So not sure if i am using something wrong here someplace, i usually go to my router settings and activate the DMZ using 192.168.1.2 - that had helped me make the hub go online and have users login to it with the exception of myself, i can see users logging in to my hub but i cannot for a reason


  3. not valid? weird... well, try 127.0.0.1 then (it's the same as localhost)

    still the same, to be honest, i consider myself very good at technical issues in computers but this problem made me feel like a rookee, i am confused as to what could be the reason behind this


  4. Thanks for the note, i tried it and it gave me the following:

    [18:58:13] *** Connecting to localhost:411...

    [18:58:13] *** The requested address is not valid in its context

    Do you know what that means?

    thanks for your help, appreciate it

    I tired also with localhost without the :411 still the same


  5. localhost is just an address like any other address so you connect to it when you specify it as a hub address when connecting to a hub. For example, using Quick Connect (Ctrl+Q) you write "localhost" there and voila :)

    Thanks for the note, i tried it and it gave me the following:

    [18:58:13] *** Connecting to localhost:411...

    [18:58:13] *** The requested address is not valid in its context

    Do you know what that means?

    thanks for your help, appreciate it


  6. aaah well, if you are running the hub on your own computer then you should connect to localhost:411 and not the hub's outside address! :)

    thanks for the note, however can you guide me exactly on what i need to do to connect to localhost:411 is that on ApexDC++? or some other settings?

    sorry i am not too good at this, thats why i am asking for help


  7. Hi people,

    I am someone who is running a hub but the funny part i cannot login to the hub, i get the message "*** No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it."

    I read hundreds of articles online and seems like it's to do with port forwarding, and i have downloaded many software to date however i was unable to bypass this issue

    Can someone tell me is there any specific UDP & TCP settings for ApexDC++ to use or open those specific ports which it works with, or is it the hub software such as Prokax which i have to open ports

    for, i am totally confused here and i appreciate any expert suggestion on this

    Many Thanks


  8. Hi there,

    I wonder if anyone can help me out, i do run a hub myself and i keep getting this on my screen page every consecutive second or so, can anyone help me identify why this message is coming and how to get rid of it.

    [13:14:06] <MJDB> Sorry, connection request not processed because contains wrong IP.

    thanks

    B. Rgds


  9. thanks for the help, i am not sure if i can mod the clock, i think i have to disable it, with regards to the other message, i did not understand how to re-solve the issue, where is it that i can check the clients connection settings, and how do i use a DNS with an updater.

    mucha appreciated :(


  10. Can someone explain to me why i am getting these 2 different messages, i can't seem to know what it means, if i use strongDC++ i don't get it, but when i run Apex i do?

  11. thanx for the reply, yes i am using Ptokax GUI however i am unable to find that option, i am using an old Ptokax v3.5.1, not the latest v3.6 and therefore is it an option in the latest version. Much appreciated.


  12. Hi there,

    I am currently running a hub of my own and when my users try to login using ApexDC++ they get this kind of an error, can you please advise how to fix this and is it from my pc, or from theirs.
