Client_unknown_to_auth

[old.Armer]

Im getting this message a lot when trying to access Barrys world servers and a few others, I never experienced this problem before I updated to V1.3 - 1.3.1.

It either results in letting me access the server a few seconds later or gives me an "INVALID_CDKEY" message and refuses access.

I have the full retail version and being in the UK, am not required to use it to activate the game (but I did anyway, after I got that error message) so an invalid CD_Key shouldnt be a problem anyway.

Any ideas on what it mean?

Sometimes i get this - its ok and perfectly normal.
Sometimes you get the cd key thing just exit and go back in m8

because of bad routes to server, complain at the ISP

try searching google for it

I get this from time to time. For me, it's always caused by a problem with my isp's DNS Servers.

What I usually do, is change my ip settings to point to Freeserves DNS Servers instead!

They are:

195.92.195.94
195.92.195.95
