Beat,

Thanks for your help and I apologize for the access issue. I did open Switzerland. My issue was I was getting slammed so hard by international sites, that it exhausted all of my dedicated server resources and froze the machine. I know it is not the best option, but RSFirewall at least allowed me to keep the machine running.

Regarding my PayPal settings. PayPal requires that a Notification URL be placed into the Notification URL field within IPN Preferences. I'm not sure if this is the setting you are suggesting. Please let me know.

What's strange about this issue is I have a PayPal Gateway for my main memberships that is working perfectly fine with IPN messages being passed to the site fine. The only difference between the problem PayPal gateway and the one that is working fine is I am using the Owner Id so I can restrict to a given plan. I hope this helps some.

Any help you could provide would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Joe

That's the setting at paypal.com that I was mentioning and that should be empty.

CBSubs gives an IPN url with each transaction, and if a fixed one is there, Paypal may ignore the one given with the transaction.

If an url is required in your country at that setting (in most, it is not), just put the domain name. The hopefully Paypal will just check that the domain matches and still use the more complete IPN URL provided with the transaction.
