Why do I get an error about "Can’t resolve IPAny"

[skullius]

Trying to access my Windows machine from a Linux (Ubuntu) machine, I get in the logs:

25105 25139 13:13:11 631,574 Io/Io: WARNING! Can’t resolve IPAny host ‘nx://aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd’.

25105 25139 13:13:11 631,623 Io/Io: WARNING! Error is 99, ‘Cannot assign requested address’.

25105 25139 13:13:11 631,641 TcpConnector/TcpConnector: ERROR! Can’t resolve host ‘nx://aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd’ in family IPAny.
25105 25139 13:13:11 631,650 TcpConnector/TcpConnector: ERROR! Error is -2, ‘Name or service not known’.
25105 25139 13:13:11 631,661 TcpConnector/TcpConnector: ERROR! In method ‘start’ context [D].

(I replaced my actual IP number that I try to connect to…)

Any Ideas on how to solve this???

Hi skullius.

Currently the quick connection string format “Protocol://Host:Port” can only be used in the search edit, the box you see between the Sort and New buttons, as explained in the tutorial dialog visible when the client starts.
We may extend the support to other configuration fields, but we would need to know how you’ve configured your connection in order to know what to improve.

The error you’re reporting occurs for example if you write “nx://aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd” in the Host field of the connection Edit dialog. In that case you can change Protocol and Port fields (on the right side of the dialog), so the quick connection format is ignored.
If this is your case, remove the prefix “nx://” from the address in Host, press OK and connect again.
