I seem to be having a similar problem intermittantly.

Most of my users connect right away, no problems. However, sometimes they get the Connection Timed Out message again and again for 30 seconds to 10 minutes. Then, suddenly, they'll log in. A wide variety of users are having trobule, so I don't think it's a specific client config.

Unfortunatly, I don't have direct control over my Server - I have a host who set it up for me. I know he poked a hole in the firewall to let the ports through, and we have been able to use it for some time without trouble.

Two things may have changed:
1) We upgraded from the previous version to the "latest" version of the RC2 server. The one with the enhanced Web Admin.
2) He moved to a new host.

I am thinking there may be something in the network settings he is using, but I'm not sure what would cause this issue, so I'm not sure where to look. Ideas?

I get the same thing but no one can join with out getting timed out as soon as they enter. ????? can anyone tell me why or what to try to stop it from timed out?
