So noone has got SoftSqueeze working remotely via SSH *without* opening ports 900x/3483 and *without* putty tunnels?
Thanks for the link to the putty tunnels howto, sounds like that's the best option for using softsqueeze remotely: > > On SERVER end (desktop at home in my situation): > - Install OpenSSH in XP using Cygwin (fairly straight forward, do a > Google search) > - Configure router for your server (forward port 22 to your server > computer) > - Remember, you do NOT need to forward ports 9000 and 3483 to use SSH - > that is the point! Better security. > - Install and run SqueezeCenter (somehwhere in Settings, I chose for it > to run at startup (requires user name and password to be stored) in case > I'm away for a few weeks and my computer restarts due to power outage, > etc) > > On CLIENT end (laptop in my situation) > - Using Putty, created a tunnel (Under Connection, SSH, Tuunnels in the > option tree) -> (Source port: 9000, Destination: 127.0.0.1:9000) > - Create another tunnel -> (Source port: 3483, Destination: > 127.0.0.1:3483) > - In options tree under SSH, Set "Preferred SSH protocol version:" to > "2 only" (supposedly exploit found in version 1) > - Go back to Session at the top of the tree, put your home routers IP > address in or your Dynamic DNS if you have it registered, click connect. > - Install and open SoftSqueeze, in Settings, under Basic tab, put > "localhost" into SqueezeCenter Hostname box. > - Make sure the box is NOT checked under use SSH tunnel (you've already > established you tunnel using Putty) > - Click ok, and you should be up and running. > why isn't this in the softsqueeze FAQ... ? -- flynn SC 7.3.2 @ Thecus N5200BR PRO v2.00.15 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ flynn's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29408 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=62777 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
