FIBS Board backgammon forum

I am new to FIBS and I have downloaded 3dfibs, but I cant connect.

I looked at the help file, it told me use som  toggles and settings - but they are all blanked out - what do I do wrong?   :tears:

If I try to connect - it stays at "validating" forever


Heeeeelp

Hi,

Are you able to connect to fibs with any of the other programs?

Try with..

Check firewall settings for permissions.

Yes, I can

I got there yesterday with RealFibs and that works fine, so my connection should be ok

I have just now noticed that if the password is wrong, it will sit on validating wihout any further messages.  Try clearing out the username and password textboxes  and retyping them back in with the save password checkbox unchecked.  

tucsonAZ THANKS VM!!!!!    :D - That was it!!!!


I had Mewannawin written as: mewannawin - it was case sentitive - so simple so simple  -   Many gray hairs later I am there on 3DFibs    :yes:


Thanks again
