The connection between CPRS and the server is not secure unless you have done something to secure it. Also, the server is set to a port, say 9200 and the client will seek the server on that port but the reply will be on a random port specified by the client, which is problematic unless they are on the same network likely inside the firewall with both client and server having a "trusted relationship."
Kevin tried to change the code to fix it to not reply on a random port. I used his changes on my system and it has not worked. The latest release of VistA from February includes CPRSChart and server with patches that allow for the use of a single port but it is not secure. At least you should be able to connect through a firewall, but you may not want to do it until the connection is secured by port forwarding or some form of VPN. Meanwhile, I am hoping to get some help finding out where we I have gone wrong in trying to effect a solution with older versions of CPRS. I would like to be able to do it with the CPRS used with the VA Demo.
