SUCCESS! I turned my firewall back *on* and it started working... Fucking thing makes no sense to me :S Thanks for all the help

Still the same message (target machine actively refused etc.) My firewall is zonealarm, and I've allowed DC but it's turned off at the minute anyway. The windows firewall's definitely off too. I take it we're leaving stunnel out of this for the time being until DC does what it's meant to?

Nope, still no joy. In a way I'm slightly glad it wasn't that simple after wasting so much time... I did get this message when I started DC though: [00:47] TLS disabled, failed to generate certificate: The system cannot find the file specified. [00:47] Failed to load certificate file [00:47] File li...

Just edited my post! I copied the message from my post above because it was (almost) identical

I get exactly the same error message as before: *** Connecting to hub.twofo.co.uk:4144... *** No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. I tried 4146 as well since it was in the config file; got the same message. The same thing happens when I try to connect to made u...

The firewall's definitely off, and the lines u mentioned are all present and correct. The only other thing I can think of is that some of the services necessary to run it are disabled from me tweaking them at some point... I've tried turning nearly all of them on (control panel-administrative tools-...

woah that was quick! it doesn't change at all, no.

I got the configured one from the help page on this site, and I've tried deleting/downloading again and still get the same thing. I'm in Tocil if that makes any difference?

It's running in the system tray, but says 0 sessions active. The text in the stunnel screen is: 2007.10.02 19:39:09 LOG5[3312:1680]: stunnel 4.15 on x86-pc-mingw32-gnu with OpenSSL 0.9.7d 17 Mar 2004 2007.10.02 19:39:09 LOG5[3312:1680]: Threading:WIN32 SSL:ENGINE Sockets:SELECT,IPv6 2007.10.02 19:39...

Hi, I've followed all the instructions on the site (ie using stunnel, with dc in direct connect mode and the ip address typed in) but whenever I try to connect I get the following: *** Connecting to localhost:8000... *** No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. I'v...
