I'm still receiving it and will try the new Viewer. I thought I might have been cut off, the other day, but then realised you might not have got up yet...

Steve has released an update to ADSViewer. It doesn’t add a lot other than show the Lat/Long of the mouse cursor up in the window header.The new file can be found at _http://code.google.com/p/adstools/_ - just download the ADSViewer 1.21 jar file. Mike – you will also need the new ADSCast 1.2 file too as the old server file doesn’t work with the new viewer.In the end I had seven people test ADSV and all received data perfectly other than Frank. The two biggest headaches were adjusting firewalls to let the port data through and the annoying matter of dynamic IP Addresses. Not only do some ISP’s give you different IP addresses each time you log in but Windows defaults to allocating dynamic IP addresses for your network machines too. One day the data can be going to the correct PC but the next day it could be routed to your printer!Allocating a static IP address for your individual computers, printers and the like is quite easy but it is harder sorting out the problem of a dynamic IP from your ISP. It can be done by using a service like DynDNS where you setup a web server to do the work for you. This is why I can send data to Gerry on 83.218.30.232 (fixed IP address) but for Steve the data is sent to k5okc.homeip.net because his ISP used dynamic addresses.I am still firing off data when I remember to active the server here but the only live recipients are Gerry, Mike and Tim for now.bones _____bones@xxxxxxxx <mailto:bones@xxxxxxx>
