I am trying to use the INDI-kstars application and I have connected my mount OK but when I try to select external guider, I get the following error message,
"The connection was refused by the peer. Make sure that PHD2 is running and check that the host name and port settings are correct".
Where do I find these settings? Are they set in the PHD2 server?
Any suggestions?

I think you'll need to ask in the the Kstars forum since that message is coming from Kstars. There's nothing to configure on the PHD2 side other than confirming that Enable Server option on the Tools menu is checked.

This is probably the same issue that as been discussed in the INDI/Ekos forum:
http://www.indilib.org/forum/ekos/2461-fixed-problem-connecting-to-remote-phd2.html

This is a configuration issue in Ekos that as been fixed by Jasem.
