I'm running VisualSVN Server on a machine named 'Main'. I can access the repository within my network from a browser at the address:
https://MAIN:8443/svn/myrepository However, when I try to access the repository from outside my firewall, I have problems. I'm trying the folowing URL: https://123.45.67.89:8443/svn/myrepository, but I can't connect and get the following message in Firefox: >Failed to Connect > >Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 65.6.185.186:8443. > >Though the site seems valid, the browser was unable to establish a connection. > > * Could the site be temporarily unavailable?

I have a D-Link DIR-655 router and have tried using both the port forwarding and virtual server advanced settings to forward port 8443 to the IP address of MAIN (192.168.0.174). I've spend a lot of time trying to figure this out and I'm ready to give up. Does anyone have any advice. I did try using port 443 as was recommended in some posts in the forum but that didn't seem to make a difference. I also tried re-installing VisualSVN server. I've also tried disabling the Windows firewall on MAIN. So far, the result has always been the same. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Joe
