[freenet-support] Firewall with NAT and DynDNS

2004-03-24 Thread Christian Menz
Hi,

Im running my node behind a NAT Firewall. I use a DynDNS account for 
updating my IP. My DynDNS alias is something like xxx.is-a-geek.org. 
Should I paste this into my freenet.ini as ipAddress?
I tried first with just filling in my actual IP, but it didnt work after 
I got a new one. So I changed the ipAddress field to xxx.is-a-geek.org, 
but it does not work anymore now.

Thanks for advice!

Christian

Hi,

using 

ipAddress=xxx.is-a-geek.org

works, at least for me. Remove the leading %, it is a comment sign.

Also use DynDNS client to update your dynamic IP - DynDNS.org, 
like ddclient (if you're on linux), periodically.

I am not sure, if you should also make your HOSTNAME xxx.is-a-geek.org?
Tweaking /etc/hosts (if on linux) to include mapping for xxx.is-a-geek.org
also might provide additional help. Someone more familiar with networking
could verify this?
