Alternate Hosts

Hi,
When you use alternate host and have a host configured with a custom port, like 1.2.3.4:1234. This port is not read from the host configuration when prompting for an alternate host.

Cheers!

You're right, I haven't handle the port in the alternate host. I added this to my todo list.

Thank you

Hi,
I was working on this problem this morning and I did a test. I appended the port in the alternate hosts from the list and it seems to work fine. I don't want to use the port configured in directly the session because I'm pretty sure that many people will want to use a different port depending on the alternate host. So the solution is to include the port in the alternate host configuration. What do you think ?

Absolutely, but that is what I tried. When you configure an alternative host with custom port, the original host with port config show as only the host. So the original doesn't work any more.

Cheers!

Doh,
I get it now and wait, one, two three ... it's now fixed :)
