Hi,

I use the host address: torilmud.dyndns.org port: 9999 to connect, that seems to resolve an address of: 66.109.139.207

The torilmud website says to us host address: torilmud.org port: 9999

Using telnet, or preferrably zmud.

Cannot Connect

Is this mud up and working? I have been trying to connect for days, and it is not responding to anything. I have tried following the advice you gave to the original request and telnet tells me "Connection Time Out" and Cannot Connect. I tried IP addresses as well. Is this mud down? If not, why might I not be able to connect?

Thanks!

As far as I know, the mud is not down. Are you running a client or straight telnetting in?

also where are you trying to connect from? some work places block port 9999 so you won't be able to connect from work....

Ahh ok.. are there any alternate ports for this? Or are the Imms making it policy that you should not mud from work?? LOL

Some muds (Duris, and others) have different ports especially for firewalls at work. Is Toril looking into this at all?

Let me know!

Nah, it's only port 9999, there are ways around a work firewall, just depends how much you really really want to mud from work though.
