Hi All. I'm new to this, and I have several (hopefully stupid and therefore easy to answer) questions. 1. I'm behind a firewall, but can probably get a port number opened up (19114). Is there a way to find other servers on this port number. I'm assuming that I need only the one port number. 2. How do I test the software - can I submit a file (e.g. a word doc) to the network? Can I request a file by name - or do I need to know some key type and resource name? Hmmm, or have I completely mis understood? 3. The large number of port numbers used, makes life extremely difficult for those of us behind firewalls. Can I request that only a limited number of port numbers be used in future revisions of the software please. I guess like most in my situation, I can ask for a few port numbers to be opened up, but I don't have direct control of the firewall, so I have to be seen to be behaving responsibly etc. 4. Just a thought, but if I use an already open port number (like port 80 which is usually http), is this likely to work, or cause havoc :-) Hmmm, maybe it an irrelevent question, because I still couldn't get out to others using different port numbers. I have read some of the documentation, but this is already a complex project, and it's going to take some time to become properly familiar.
