Hi,
I've set up a remote SB3 to access my server over the net. I've opened
up the ports and forwarded them on my router. All works OK.

I now want to secure the system a bit and am trying to use the "block
incoming connections" feature in squeezecenter but can't get it to
work.

My understanding is that I check the box to say block incoming
connections and then add a list of allowed IPs in the following box.

In the box I have:

127.0.0.1,192.168.0.*,xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa

The 127.0.0.1 is the local host I think, the 192.168.0 allows the local
players on my NW to connect and the final address should allow the
remote SB3 to connect, right?

But if I check the tick box I can connect locally from the players on
my NW, but the remote player hangs saying "connecting to server..." and
never does.

Unchecking the box and all works again but obviously with no security.

Am I missing something out or misunderstanding how this works?

Thanks,
DrS
