Connection to Remote Host timed out

[james.pickup]

I have a looked in the forums and FAQ etc but can find no reference to changing the error page received by users when using Wingate as a forward proxy. The "blocked" page is easily edited through the access rules. How can I edit the "Connection to Remote Host timed out" page please?

thanks.

Hi

Basically those pages are not editable.

You can edit part of the message that is sent back (the error description) by entering data into the registry.

The strings live in

32 bit windows: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Qbik Software\WinGate\ErrorStrings\SocketErrors
64 bit windows: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WOW6432Node\Qbik Software\WinGate\ErrorStrings\SocketErrors

These are a list of error value (integer) to description.

So for example connection refused is error 10061, so the string value would have a name 10061, and the value would be the override description that WinGate would use.

Connection Refused: 10061
Timed Out: 10060
Destination network unreachable: 10051
Connection reset: 10054

A full set of socket error codes can be found here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-nz/library/aa924071.aspx
