If you do not have a static IP, you will run into some trouble trying to get it working over the internet. First, un-comment the binding_host and set it to your internal network IP. At minimum, make sure your internal IP is static. Then, in the hostname section, you will need to put a hostname that is handled by a dynamic dns service. Setup the dns update software on a machine that will call out to said service to update the ip to hostname whenever it changes. Not positive, but if you do not have the binding_host set, it binds to localhost only. Check out the output of netstat to be sure. also, make sure that your FW has a forward for your listening "port". > > Thank you, > > Richard > > On Mon, Sep 19, 2011 at 10:08 AM, Jim Lucas <[email protected]> wrote: > >> On 9/17/2011 10:35 AM, Richard Wheelock wrote: >>> Hello all, >>> >>> I'm fairly sure this is a permissions issue, but as far as how to resolve >>> it, I'm stumped.
