HELP CAN'T CONNECT

Post by kings_of_leon »

I'm using shakespeer on snow leopard. I'm trying to connect to 127.0.0.1:8000. I get the error 'Failed to connect to hub 127.0.0.1:8000. Connection Refused'.
I have followed the instructions and can't seem to find the problem...please help!

Hi there,

Seems to be an issue with either stunnel or the firewall.

First make sure you tried to follow the steps from the wiki http://www.twofo.co.uk/wiki/index.php/Connect#Mac_Users

Also pls check the firewall status.

Hope that helps

Thanks for the quick reply!! I downloaded everything once again, and am able to connect to shakespeer. The hublist gets loaded. But I can't connect to any other user...

I believe its probably a case of not having the correct IP in the settings.

Go to http://checkip.dyndns.org copy the IP address that you get from there and paste it into the External IP box or equivalent in the Settings page.
