Topic: PhpFileExchange remote access doesn't work

[mackayr]

I'm trying to configure PhpFileExchange.  I have it set up at least partially correctly in that I can access it over my lan, add users, upload and remove files, etc...  However, I can't access it remotely.  I have a dynamic ip address from an ISP that blocks port 80, both of which compound the configuration problem.

I have my website configured to listen on an alternate port, and it works fine (so I know that I do have remote access to my server using the alternate port).  However, when I configure config.php3 to use my internet ip or dynamic domain name as the HTTP_HOST, I doesn't work.  When I attempt to load the login.php3 page, it seems to go into an endless loop and never loads the page.  I think it may have something to do with MYSQL public access?

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
