Hi - I just added the streamng service to iPeng. I've read your guide, and I have several questions before I start setting up my music server for remote access (which I would prefer over Audiogalaxy). I will be using a VPN. I have a Linksys router (which supports VPN) and know how to access it's settings. First - my regular music server is on an Windows XP machine which offers PTPP. The iPhone settings have that as an option as well. Will that work with iPeng? Second - by default my Linksys router is set to DHCP. If I'm using VPN, do I need to change that to Static IP in the internet setup section ? If I do so, I then see an address beginning with something other than 192.168 as my Internet IP Address Third - do I also need a static IP address for my VPN Server? Do I achieve that by turning off DHCP in my network address server settings on my router or can I set it for a particular machine. (Couldn't find a way to do that.) Do I need to be concerned with port forwarding? Finally - Setting up VPN on the iPhone do I enter the external IP Address of the Router as the server? Sorry for all these questions, but I want to know what I'm getting into before I start. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ john greenwood's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41039 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96006 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
