I get this strange error a few seconds after I want to retrieve the server list. It just says 'Host lookup canceled'.

And because the search around here doesn't work, I'm posting this here...

Lobby Server is not responding!

First of all make sure that in the 'lobby_servers.txt' the address is lobby.soldat.pl. Sometimes you have to press 'Request Servers' a couple of times for them to come up. Please check the Soldat homepage, as any future updates will be posted there.

If you have done all of the above and it still does not work that means that the Lobby server is down, which it does from time to time, so please be patient when it does.
Here's a really helpful topic with all alternatives you may want when the lobby is offline.
What version of Soldat do you have? Is there a firewall blocking Soldat?

happens because you got a little space before the ip adress.

it also gives this if your internet connection is dead (or high packet loss), or if the DNS cannot resolve from your DNS server

Well, the lobby isn't down because on my other computer everything works fine.
Also the server in the txt file is the right server.
