The message "initializing USER..." means, that you are correctly connected to the server and receive data for the remote user. > I'm still not sure if I was connecting properly because it was > displaying me as [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of showing my IP address, > which I suspect has something do with IP masquerading. The map shows what the server sees. "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" means, that the user Lee is connected to the server you are querying. On pigeons map you can select which server you want to observe. If you switch to "o-schroeder.de" while connected to pigeons server, you will see "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" (the IP of pigeons server). That is because my and pigeons server exchange their user data, so that both servers see "one world". That is possibly changing in the future, but that's the way it is atm. regards, Oliver _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
