Hi,
i am trying to run DTC protol on my second PC.
I setup server sierra chart following:
Data and Trading Communications (DTC) Protocol Server
IP Adres on pc where sierra server run is i 1.1.1.5

I folow this:
Using DTC Server for Data and Trading in Another Sierra Chart Instance: Using DTC Server for Data and Trading in Another Sierra Chart Instance
to connect on second PC.
Listening port is:11099

1. Am i correct that in server i should put IP:LISTENINGPORT in example 1.1.1.5 IP nad Listeningport:11099 ( its not clear from intruction and there is no "example" how should line with ip and listening port looks like.)
1.1.1.5:11099
Is this correct?

2. Seems that i connect anyway to the server. How can i find any symbol? The list where i click to find symbol is empty.
3. I got error msg: Symbol Error - GCZ22_FUT_CME is unknown, unavailble or improperly formatted.
What should i do?

Ok, i See.
Connection works but only for first time data has been downloaded. I dont received real time data.Listening port from server and server port on instance are fix for the same number.

After connectcing i have message"
"market data requested from remote computer not allowed "
What did i missed?
What should configured the get real time data as well?

Best Regards
