I'm not sure where else to look for help on this one, so I'll post here...
My parents have SlimServer running on their XP box, mainly for my mom to stream online radio. I wanted to stop their SlimServer and open Putty and create a tunnel so I could stream from my SlimServer at home (I can successfully stream). Whatever I do I cannot get a usable tunnel in Putty. I know how to create them, and have done it successfully many times. I just can't do it with theirs. If I use IE to try to view my SlimServer over the tunnel I get a Page Cannot Be Displayed error when I try localhost:9000 and when I try 127.0.0.1:9000 it either keeps trying to connect or gives the same error as localhost, I can't quite remember now. As an experiment, I went home and created a similar setup on my XP box (I run my SlimServer on another machine running Solaris) and created a tunnel on ports 3483 and 9000 to the SlimServer box. I then manually entered the IP address of my XP box in one of my SB3s and like magic everything worked. As expected. My parents and I both run XP SP2 with Norton 2007. As far as I can tell both firewalls are good to go. Any ideas what will make tunnels in Putty not work? I can login to my Solaris box fine, so Putty itself can connect. -- 4mula1 SlimServer 6.5.4 + Solaris 10 x86: Because Linux would've been too easy! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 4mula1's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3439 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38321 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
