Im using the DebugViewRemoteClient because I have two computers on my development site. Its very handy to have DebugView++ running on the other computer showing all messages and still being able to run my test subject in fullscreen on my main computer

I somehow missed this request and now suddenly noticed it. I'm sorry about that. Where did you suggest to add also hostnames exactly ?

OMG :D This was a long time ago and I havent been using DebugView++ in quite a while. Not sure I remember this anymore, but lets make a guess Can it bee that adding a remote client demands knowledge of the IP address? If so, I probably asked you to redesign the settings to also support host names. You know, normally a client computer is getting the IP from a DHCP server... looking up the IP address using DNS or something like that is quite usefull in those situations..
