ASSS Questions - Billing Server

ASSS can't connect to my billing server!

ASSS global.conf:

[ Billing ]
;Proxy = bin/proxy
IP = 192.168.0.4
Port = 900
ServerName = SSZ Beans
Password = ****

subbill.exe AND Catid's SubBill2.exe both don't even act like they recieved a connection request. However, using Ethereal, a packet-capturing program, I was able to see that two packets are sent back and forth before ASSS says
W <billing> can't connect to billing server: Connection refused

Help?

Note: this may need to go in the bugs forum, but i'm pretty sure it's just me and not ASSS.

Try using IP=localhost on the server.

(from another post)

I would've tried that, but the billing server isn't running on the same computer...

If anyone wants to see the two packets sent, I have them so just ask.

Edit: It has a syncronization request packet (connection request packet), then the billing server sends back a reset;acknowledgement packet, which means probably that the billing server doesn't like what ASSS is saying

Maybe uncomment ";Proxy = bin/proxy"

When bin/proxy is uncommented it gives an error and segfaults about not being able to find it.

Edit: I found a bproxy, and when I tried it out, it gave this:

Code: Show/Hide

bproxy: Sep 5 16:49:43 2003 bproxy 0.1 started
bproxy: Sep 5 16:49:43 2003 contacting remote server
........ (more stuff here)
bproxy: Sep 5 16:49:56 2003 no packets from biller in 13 seconds, assuming down
I <billing> lost connection to billing server (read eof)

and SubBill2.exe (Catid's subbill) gives a

Code: Show/Hide

Connection request from 192.168.0.9:-32584
Session timeout: 192.168.0.9:32952

subbill.exe (default subbill) just sits like a dead duck...

Use the billing_ssc module to connect to subbill or other billers using the standard protocol.

billing_ssc is in what so file? core? external? I tried billing, that's not it...

Edit: I think I found it... but do I need to take off external:billing to use external:billing_ssc?

Edit again: Okay it connects and accepts and all, but every subbill.ini:KickOutDelay milliseconds it gets bumped off. Should I just change it to like 99999999999?
