well -- winxp firewall was off -- but (stupid me) i forgot about the FW between the windows net and the ray server net! actually i see the ray server starting to send packets to windows! so in addition to: ray server -> tcp 3389 (rdp) -> windows i need ray server -> tcp 6000 (sun multimedia extension) -> windows to get the mediaplayer working with the multimedia extensions (and so avoid the freezes). > > what is the minimum requirements for all this to work? > > > > i have a plain winxp now: > > windows xp 5.1.2600 > > internet explorer 6.0.2600.0000 > > media player 8.00.00.4477 > > I'd say a reasonably up-to-date Windows XP with media player 9 or 10 at > least. internet Explorer only matters if you are testing flash.
