Hello Alan I have DXBase 2007 and Windows XP
I looked at my Hosts file and, like another poster, did not find VE1DXI So I added ve1dxi.no-ip.com to my hosts file. Once I finished I clicked on the empty line below then closed the Host window. I was able to connect to VE1DXI by reselecting it in the appropriate menu. Note that even though it was added at the end of the list in the Host box it had then been sorted into the list in alphabetical order. I then closed the connection, closed DXBase and reopened it. VE1DXI was still selected and connected up again I have not rebooted totally yet! 73 Fred G4BWP - A65BD ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alan Leith" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, May 07, 2011 7:09 PM Subject: [Dxbase] cluster setup > > The one response I got to my question about changing the address of a DX > cluster has half solved my problem.
