DCS authentication server problems

[Buzzer1977]

Since the last update my son and i can't connect to the DCS authentication server. His rig is running native DCS, i'm running DCS via steam on my rig.
We both have the problem with authentication. So it's not a installation issue. All other network services work just fine.

Error messages appear in the following order:

In the Launcher:
"Bad connection"

"Failed to get authorization data. Error code is: -28
Using saved 
authorization."

When launching DCS:
Failed to get authorization data. Error code is: -28
Using saved authorization.

 

Failed to get authorization data. Error code is: 203
Using saved 
authorization.
