Here's a quick Step-By for those who need help with the server install.
Download and install WinMx, either v2.6 or v3.0, your choice.
http://www.winmx.com/beta300/ new beta v3.0bx
http://www.winmx.com regular v2.6
Open the client, you should be on the Server page. If not, click Servers in v2.6 or click OpenNap Protocol Networks in v3.0bx.
Place pointer on
<OpenNap Protocol High Capacity Networks>. In v2.6 a pop-out line appears on the right. Just right click the line for v3.0bx.
Click “Add”. A grey box opens.
Fill in the box so it looks like the illustration below (v2.6), adding your Screen Name and Password in the appropriate windows. Click OK.
A new line should now read:
[pommie] pommie.dns2go.com:8888 Offline
When your pointer hits the
[pommie] line, the pop-out line will reappear in v2.6. (Right click for v3). Click connect.
That's it. It should now start the connection to Snarkriddens' server in England, log you in & load your file info. This can take a minute or so.
Once connected, the next step is to add
NU users to your Hotlist so you can browse the folders. You'd normally do that during a transfer but you can eliminate the wait by opening Search and entering “01”. Almost everyone has at least one file with that in it. When the results come in just right click on each new User Name and then click “Add to hotlist” in the drop down box.
You can also place the server under
<OpenNap Protocol Low Capacity Networks> in v2.6. Follow the same instructions, just check off "Low capacity OpenNap" instead.
Welcome to the Network.
