Resolving “NetGroup.Connect.Rejected” or when your Flash P2P apps stop working
November 2nd, 2010
I just ran into a problem with NetGroup.Connect.Rejected, my FMS4 server was running ok - I have even tried Cirrus/Stratus and I was still getting this error on demos, which were properly working before.
OK - so what is this error about?
It’s all about your Flash Player security and it’s basically telling you that you have denied access to some source. This happens, when you start developing apps on different PC and someone before you denied to use P2P or similar.
Solution:
1. Go to Global Settings
2. delete all or specific P2P settings in Global Settings
3. run your application again (it should be in browser, had sometimes problems with standalone apps, where dialog didn’t appear)
this dialog should appear. Click Allow and better Remember.
Don’t forget that these settings are inherited to all versions of Flash Player you have on your PC, even to betas or prereleases.
Good Luck!
Move from Stratus to Adobe Cirrus
October 10th, 2010
Quick note: As you have probably already registered, we have renamed Adobe Stratus P2P rendezvous service to Adobe Cirrus.
You can read about details at Kevin’s Towes blog.
Basically, acquire new developer key here and use new address:

Here you can download the simplest P2P Object Replication example, which is easy to understand. Previous examples might have been too complicated to start with. Grab this code and start using it right the way.

Try demo - open in two or more windows. Click “startProviding” button on one of them and “startReceiving” on the rest of the windows. You can then click “writeObject” to check the received object on the receiver windows.
Good Luck!
