The batch file ("mblogic.bat") assumes that you have installed Python version 2.5 or 2.6, and that you have installed it in the default location ("C:\Python25" or "C:\Python26"). If you have a different version of Python installed, or have installed Python in a different location, you will have to edit the batch file accordingly. To edit the batch file, open it with a text editor (e.g. MS Notepad), and change it to match the version and location of your Python installation.

Some of the above lines may appear in a different order depending on when the connections are made. The above assumes you are using the example configuration file included with the release. If you are not using the example configuration, you will see a different series of messages relating to which servers and clients are starting up and connecting.

Port usage is determined by the configuration file.
