The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But it's still on my list.

That's all right... just keep playing on IC NA LOL just kidding of course you're welcome too but I'm guessing Quick may be out of town of something cause he is usually pretty fast to respond.

Not sure what to tell you ghost68. Being stuck on enumerating session usually is an indication that you are not getting connected through novaworld to the server. Typically it can be a server-side issue with a firewall preventing the connection.
However, I have checked that on this server and find no problem. Also, I have had other players logged onto the server since it was reset last (which indicates there is no firewall preventing such logins on the server side).
Yes Quick, I can log into the TR NA server, and I don't have any problems joining any of the other servers. Nobody I have talked with can join the ESC NA server, and it is still on the same map "air support" since it came back online a few days ago which is odd being as popular of a server as it is, it also leads me to believe that others are having the same problem in trying to join. I just tried again with no luck.

I finally had a chance to check on this in detail this morning. It seems that for some reason a port in the very middle of a number of ports that are forwarded on my router was not being forwarded. Never had this happen before, and it is very strange.
I changed the JO ESC NA port around and re-did things and now it seems to work. Try it ghost68 and let me know if you have problems.
Not sure if you need to check your firewall / port forwards again *HmS*Quick but for a fair while its been doing the same, join and stuck at enumerating session...

Thanks for the post. Not really sure what happened but I checked on them Friday and the ports were jacked from within the actual game files. Strange but true, but should be sorted now.

Update on these two servers - I have the games down for now testing for a problem that the system has had in randomly rebooting. I believe it is a corrupted driver and I hope that I have isolated it from the system, but for now the game servers will be down. This hopefully will only be for a few days while I test out the stability of the server.

Yup, no problem.
The server machine has been up and stable for 2 days without the games running on it, so I'm loading them back up and will see how it goes. (Fingers crossed...)
