Topic: Port Forwarding

[jonasbrum]

Hi,

I have a SME7 running like my web server... one of my website has a Live Camera running... that webcam server is sitting in a XP machine in the same network... running on port 1719... If I try to browse the local ip from the XP PC (192.168.66.21:1719) the webcam server works perfectlly, showing a Flash front-end with the live screaming. I've setup a port forward on my SME from 1719 on the server to 1719 on my XP machine (TCP), now I should see my webcam server typing 192.168.66.2:1719 (my server ip), correct? Yeap, but I don't know why that setup is no working, I have more 10 port forward for another services, and it works... Did someone have a similar experience?

Thanks,
Jonas Brum

If your using port forwarding then your sme is in server/gateway mode.

Port forwarding works between your network cards. That is WAN to LAN.

I have a port forward from my router to the server on the same port...
