Sign up for a free/basic Dynamic DNS account at no-ip.com You install a small service on your machine which can watch your router for changes to the I.P. address assigned to it by your broadband provider. It will then update a DNS entry for you so that you can contact the machine by a hostname. Then you need to open some ports (3483 9000) on your router pointing them to the Slimserver box. The exact mechanism for doing this varies by router. If you just want to stream audio to Winamp, you just need port 9000. If want to run Softsqueeze, then you'll need 3483 also. Here's the Wiki entry. http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?ConnectingRemotely -- oreillymj oreillymj's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=699 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27269 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Many thanks indeed! Already on the case with a free DNS service from DynDNS. Now just got to see if I can remember how to configure port forwarding on my US Robotics router. Excellent stuff though - thanks again. -- gutted http://www.last.fm/user/gutt3d/ Slimserver 6.3.1 +MusicIP Mixer 1.6 +MoodLogic 2.7.1.18 +AlienBBC 1.02a +Slimscrobbler 0.34 Windows 2000 Professional sp4 Intel Celeron 1.4GHz 512MB RAM Squeezebox 1 wireless (Player Firmware Version: 40) Library of approx 6300 MP3s gutted's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=147 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27269 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Hi! Use Hamachi and you don't have to open up your fw or use a DynDNS service. There is a HowTo install it as a service on the Hamachi forum. I use it all day long. :) http://www.hamachi.cc -- bernt http://www.last.fm/user/ottovonkopp/ bernt's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1342 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27269 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Cool - thanks bernt! I've got slim working (sort of) using DynDNS. I'm working from home today, but someone in our office in Maidenhead can access my SlimServer - while someone in our West London office can't access it :( Sadly I'm normally based in the West London office, so I need to get that location working. But it's definitely close though. If I have no joy getting it working as is, then I'll try Hamachi. Excellent - cheers! -- gutted http://www.last.fm/user/gutt3d/ Slimserver 6.3.1 +MusicIP Mixer 1.6 +MoodLogic 2.7.1.18 +AlienBBC 1.02a +Slimscrobbler 0.34 Windows 2000 Professional sp4 Intel Celeron 1.4GHz 512MB RAM Squeezebox 1 wireless (Player Firmware Version: 40) Library of approx 6300 MP3s gutted's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=147 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27269 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
