I should point out that several distrobutions still have packages dating back to the alpha days (~6 months ago). When you run 'glob2 --version' as Giszmo pointed out, make sure the first digits read something like 0.9.x. If you have 0.8.x, those server are no longer active, shutdown months ago.

You can grab the latest code from the download page ( http://www.globulation2.org/wiki/Download_and_Install ) and follow the compiling guide at http://www.globulation2.org/wiki/Compiling . Then you should have no problems connecting to the server.

However, should you have a beta version ( 0.9.x ) and still cannot connect, please post your bug on https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?group=glob2 so that the developers can find and take care of it quicker than they would here.

Thanks.
