Problems in connecting with nicks

[AndyBear 0]

Hi All

I have been having problems connecting to Apex DC++ because when I try to sign in I am disconnected because my nick is not long enough, however my nick takes up all the available space!!

Anyone also had this problem or know how to fix it.

Kind Regards

You might, in that case want to try a shorter nick, as that message is coming from the hub... so it is possible that it is just sending the wrong message.

Hey

I tried that but I still get the msg:

[01:31:08] <BOT> Your nickname is too short, please change it and reconnect

What should I do now?

Kind Regards

Have you got any illegal characters? Just use a plain name. :D

This is a problem in the hub you are connecting to not your client. Try another hub and it should work.

HI

Nah, that didn't solve it, I've tried all kinds of nicks and also uninstalling and reinstalling several times, but I just get the same msg.

Also, what other is there to connect to? I am connecting to Pranu.ath.cx:667, but are there other incarnations of DC++? I try to get onto Strong DC++ but it disconnects me because my client is out of date.

Kind regards

Yes indeed Andrew. There are hundreds of hubs. Press the globe on the top left corner of you screen (In the client) that will get you to the public hubs list.

Double click on one to connect to it.

Play with this for a bit and you will get the hang of it. :D

this is not a client bug its your own fault please solve it by changing your nick or talking to the hubowner

This bug is most likely hubside, since it's not accepting your username. Change it to something else, more basic or use a different hub (there are thousands).
