Hi,

connect to the server ... I tried everything in the sql.conf like
localhost:5999,
my.IP:5999, hostname, etc and nothing makes it to connect ... Is there any
(right)
way to specify a port to connect ? is it possible ?

port) and it connected without problems ...

in sql.conf

right after the hostname, add a port option.

        hostname = "nameofhost"
        port     = "5999"
