I'm having issues getting SimConnect working. The last time I tried to use it to run ASN from a networked computer I was running FS9 and Windows XP. I'll make this initial post brief. Perhaps somebody can spot my error early on. If not, the dirty details will need to be looked at.
I have 2all of the folders configured to where I have full control locally and via the network. My FSX computer has an IP of 192.168.0.26
-= My Simconnect.xml: {on the FSX machine in the AppData area} =-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>
<SimBase.Document Type="SimConnect" version="1,0">

[SimConnect]
Protocol=IPv4
Address=192.168.0.26
Port=500
MaxReceiveSize=8192
DisableNagle=1
When I start FSX I use the AI Traffic utility on the client machine (laptop). I get the DOS box for a moment and then it disappears. This indicates that the the simconnect is not making the connection. I started all this bu installing each of the SDK's. I ran the "SimConnect.msi" after each one before installing the next. So I believe I have the simconnect properly installed.
Any ideas?
