1038: auto ip rolling?

DayCuts · 10-06-2004, 02:59 PM

new 1038 beta, win2k

[05:39:09] [L] Connecting to ** -> IP=**.***.***.61 PORT=****
[05:39:30] [L] Connection failed (Connection timed out)
[05:39:31] [L] Connecting to ** -> IP=**.***.***.32 PORT=****
[05:39:36] [L] Connection canceled

The site uses duel ip's, when trying to connect to the first ip as set in site manager it recieved a time out, then automatically tried the second.

After cancelled and trying to reconnect (by selecting the site in site drop down list) it continued to use the second ip. Had to enter the site manager and go to that site and click connect for it to use the correct ip again. Not sure if this is planned behavior maybe but it seems kinda odd to have to go right into the site manager to get it to connect to the correct ip again.

No, this is not odd. Because you canceled the second attempt FlashFXP has no way to determine whether or not that ip is good. And because the first ip didn't work for sure it isn't not more then normal that FlashFXP tries the second ip when reconnecting.

P.S. When you don't cancel FlashFXP will try ip #1 again automatically.
