We are testing a new version of the dosbox server @ mech2.org port: 49002
It should be working a day to couple days after this post.

Re: Dosbox server change
Did some basic testing on it. Seems to be working like expected so far.
Will take a few days and tests before we can be 100% sure.

Re: Dosbox server change
So would I connect by typing "mech2.org 49002" in the IPX server field, or would I type "mech2.org" and change the IPX port from 213 to 49002? I'm using D-Fend Reloaded as a DosBox front-end.

Re: Dosbox server change
Hey apparently Yoshi and I get timeouts with windows 7 operating systems when we try to connect to the netmech server with both the old and new port numbers. It cannot be a networking device related cause since I was able to connect to the netmech server just fine on windows 10 and my windows 7 machine is in the same local network. Just wondering if you two or anyone else has had the same problem with windows 7
Re: Dosbox server change
Havokq3: Correct.
Mattmets: The reason we moved to a higher port was to counteract any ISP blocking of lower ports. I am not sure how to help you. I have had no problems as yet.

Re: Dosbox server change
I'm still having problems connecting; is there any port-forwarding I need to do on my end?

Re: Dosbox server change
Just typing in: "IPXNET CONNECT mech2.org 49002" should do it. I suppose its possible you have a nasty NAT setup/router.

Re: Dosbox server change
I found an issue causing some machines not to connect. I hope we have it fixed for the time being.
