<p data-path-to-node="1">Hi everyone,

<p data-path-to-node="2">I've been trying to set up multi-user access for our team in QuickBooks Desktop, but I keep running into an issue where standard workstations are unable to connect to the company file stored on the host server.

<p data-path-to-node="3">When checking the hosting setup, it appears that multi-user hosting isn't communicating properly across the network, and we keep getting notifications indicating that hosting mode is turned off or misconfigured.

<p data-path-to-node="4">We've already verified basic network connectivity and made sure the host server has hosting switched on, but individual computers are still having trouble locating the file. Has anyone else encountered this problem recently?

<p data-path-to-node="5">If you're facing a similar issue, I found a helpful walkthrough covering the step-by-step fix for QuickBooks Hosting Mode is Off, which outlines how to properly configure host settings and Database Server Manager.

<p data-path-to-node="6">Does anyone have additional tips or specific firewall rules to check that usually cause this? Any advice would be appreciated!
