Can't access Uplink Internal Services System

Alright, whenever I try to access said server, as soon as I get on there, I'm kicked off by the admin.

To elaborate, I click on said server in the list of available servers; I'm treated to the standard log-in screen. Below is my username and password for the server, and below that is the admin's username and password.

Before I can click on either, I get booted off, and upon checking my status, see 'Unauthorized access of server' or something like that.

The only way I can access the System now is if I bounce off of numerous other servers, and even then, I don't have that long before the admin finds me.

I suspect this is a bug, although I am not positive; can anyone help me with this?

cant say i have come across that one before,

standard questions first

what operating system are you running?

what version of uplink are you running?

where did you get the game from?

This problem can happen when you attempt to hack something, disable some security and disconnect.

If you connect to the server again and the security is still disabled, you will be traced immediately.

You can remedy this by fast-forwarding a bit so that the security will be re-activated.

Ah...seems that was the problem. I recall checking their security out after discovering myself getting traced every time I connected to them, and seeing their security down.

I actually ended up starting a new game and advancing farther than I had before; still, thanks for the help the both of you!
