Just to add to what Jermery said; 192.168.x.x (as well as 10.x.x.x and 172.16.x.x are not routable over the net, so you'd have to use your public IP address assigned by your provider to access the system from elsewhere on the net not the IP address assigned to the machine by your gateway/nat device/etc. If you were outside your network (off-net) and trying to access the 192.168.x.x address you would receive timeouts. hth ~k _______________________________________________ mlug mailing list [email protected] https://listes.koumbit.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mlug-listserv.mlug.ca
