John:
Heya. Sounds like you're making pretty good progress with your
networks. I've some comments and suggestions for you to try:
1. KaboodleProxy will definitely make your life easier. It just isn't
ready for public-consumption yet. I expect it to be available this
month in Linux, and Windows within 2 months after that. Once the
demo site is up and running (it runs on Linux), you're welcome to
use that site until the Windows code is ready.
2. On your home network's Master node, you should be able to tell
Kaboodle to use a different port than 11965 for VPN'ing. I believe
that options is in the "Advanced" tab.
3. If the checkbox is ghosted, it's because the PC is already the Master
node. Alternatively, if the VPN "Status" tab indicates that the
Zebedee server is running, then the PC must be the Master node
(Kaboodle won't start a Zebedee server on non-Master nodes).
Hope this helps. Please let me know how the "Advanced" tab
adjustment works for you!
