We are beginning to set up PNotes on our network. We just sent up two computers and the exchange on one of our servers. One computer will send and receive ok. The other will only send. We must have a setting wrong but we are at a loss....
It' most likely the firewall settings
Hi Ol
Thank you for the advice. We will check our settings but I don't think that is the problem. I've been testing PNotes using my network at home for over a month and it has been working well. Our firewalls on our computers at work are turned off and we rely on rebust firewall to the outside world. We turn our individual firewalls off so that our old version of Sticky Notes will work. We want to replace our old sticky note program with PNotes. I evaluated several different programs and I liked PNotes the best.

We have checked the firewall settings and the Windows firewall is disabled. Our firewall is managed from outside the company and they are all set the same. What else might it be?
We disabled the antivirus and umbrella service on both computers and also we stopped the service on the server to save the notes. It still would not go through to the other computer. We got this in the PNotes log.

What would make one computer refuse the connection and the other on accept it?
