Hey noob here trying to setup ventrilo ......
When I input the server (ventrilo-2.clanplanet.co.uk:3825
) I get a msg about invalid characters -do you want to accept it anyway? Then in main window it says "cannot be resolved".......
Have I got the server right?
Is there a default channel to use?
Thanx

Are you putting the port number in the main address? The port # has it's own little box.
When you enter the server you're in the lobby. Click on Live for whatever and all your friends will say 'hi' You're too loud!:lmfao:
In the "Connection Editor" I have given "Hostname or IP " as "ventrilo-2.clanplanet.co.uk:3825" and the "Port" was automatically shown as 3784.
I filled in the password from the other thread. The Default channel field is blank.
When I click OK I get the message "The current hostname appears to contain invalid characters. Accept it anyway?" When I click yes, the Connection Editor window closes and the main window includes this "?MSG: unable to resolove hostname."

I've lost connection once, but that is it. The last week it has been fine.

Ok thanks, Apparently I'm able to connect again.
Never had a Ventrillo outage before so I was curoius :)

I tried to connect last night but did not get in.
Vent went 'off' about 2145 BST.
back on this morning :D
Vent off again. :sad:
Verbally taking the p*** is far superior to the written variety.

Just checked ...
QuoteNetwork Outage
Hi All,
As of 5pm today, our network has gone down - this was caused by the failure of a core switch with our upstream provider. The technicians are currently on-site trying to fix the problem, but as of yet, we are not sure of a time-scale for repair. Clanplanet would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused, and assure you that we are doing our best to get all services back online as soon as possible.
Regards,
Clanplanet Support.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update 20:15 16/02/2010
We have a new estimated time to fix the current network issues.
Connectivity should be restored by 20:45. A worst-case ETA has been given of 22:30
Regards,
Clanplanet Support
Still down I'm afraid :sad:
Thamks for that, Obi-wan. Vent up and running :D
Now able to bore the a*** off people about my new wheel - did I tell you about my new wheel?
Well......
For those like me, who have had problems recently, try this solution (Regedit suggestion).:)

We will shortly be moving dMr off of Ventrilo and onto our new Teamspeak3 server.
This will save us money (Ventrilo isn't free) and allow us more configuration options. As you're probably aware, wheel button bindings for push-to-talk did not work very well in TS2 hence the move to Ventrilo but I'm pleased to say that there's no such issue with TS3 :)
Get your TS3 client here (http://www.teamspeak.com/?page=downloads).
You can test your client on our server when you're ready. Details on the 'Server Password (http://www.deadmen.co.uk/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=60)' thread. Please post any issues you find.
When Jamin is happy to do so we can set a date for the official migration.
We could do with a dead men racing room setting up :thumb:

Yep. In hand along with one for Arma II :)
Already done mate, get with the program!
Cheers guys :thumbsup2:
If you have not already made the switch to TS3, I'd suggest doing it immediately - we're about to get cut off as I did not pay their renewal bill!
Some FAQs or even this thread title might need updating to match the new TS3 use.
