Hmm. Basic question, but is “[http://192.168.3.165:8088](http://192.168.3.165:8088)” the correct address for your server? ---

The title said Beta 7.2. Is this consistent across multiple client machines? Can they all launch a single time and then not launch due to connect timeouts? What happens if you delete your [tt]%USER\_DIR%/.ignition[/tt] folder and try launching again? ---

I’m having the same problem…Deleted the .ignition folder and it starts working again. It fails to connect the very next launch after folder deletion. It is occurring on multiple client machines. ---

If you can reproduce this reliably it would be helpful if you could call in and have us take a look at your system over GoToMeeting.
