Server does not support this client version

[SGResu]

Why?
I do not updated both server and client!

errr huh?

[mCn]

that's why.
ts2 rc1 only works until 03mar2003.

Yes, I update server and client and now both works!

My question is, why I can't connect with an old client to an old server?

me got exactly the same question!!!!

does it imply that TS developers embed some "secret" code
in this application that makes old version TS 2.0.26.27 not
work at certain time/date?

if the server is using TS2.0.*.*, do all versions of TS client of 2.0.*.* workable with it? or else, what's the condition for it working properly?

thanks for answering.

ok, see my guess:

the TS2 rc1 server will send some version information to
certain IP address for "authentication" or "verification". and this
is not supposed to be known to all TS users!

so, when new version of TS2 server comes out, TS2 organization
disable the old version server in order to let users use new
version. if i am not wrong, the motivation is good, but the result
is too bad! (

1 : you guys have to maintain some kind of compatibility so that
event new version release, old version TS client and server should
work with eachother without any problem!

2 : for privacy reasons, if your application are sending some
"secret" information to some site, you should release to
public, so users will be aware of that, otherwise,.... u know.
