Lost in FSHost

Hey all,
I decided I must try SimV multiplayer, so I downloaded FShost (I use FSX) and opened FSHostClient.exe.
I enter a name and port 23456.
Then I enter my IP adress, but when I search for sessions it says it can't find any.

What am I doing wrong?  :-[

FIRST, and most important, read & follow this thread, EXACTLY, or you will have problems, as well as potentially cause a connection problem for others. ;)

When that is done, before you start FSX do the following:

-Click the FSHostClient.exe

-This will pop up:

In the IP address window, enter: fs.netfrag.org like I did, and click 'Search IP for sessions'

-When it finds SimV's server, click Connect at the bottom. The chat window will pop up. ;)

Now, start FSX in Windowed mode, and leave it that way.

Thanks, but it seems like I can't create a port.
I'll try that again later.
