Title: TorrentFlux-Ports blocked by Sme-Server?!
Post by: Adreamus on April 22, 2009, 03:26:26 PM

Hi,

I've installed the torrentflux (orig) and the sme-torrentflux . The acces over browser works fine. Dowload also (from the web). But theres a problem with port-blocking.but at the gateway the ports are forewarded correctly. it have to come from the sme-server. the incoming ports are blocked. How to allow them?

I've tried to do it, like the wikihelps: "config set torrentflux service access public status enabled TCPPort XXX:YYY"  where XXX:YYY is the portrange to open. But it doesn't work :-(

I don't know if torrentflux is the right name for the service. how to find out?

The server is configured as server-only. firewall working?or not?

i hope on your help. thx

greetz Adreamus

ps: sorry for my bad english :D

sme-torrentflux probably wants your SME server to be in server/gateway mode, not in server-only mode.

If your SME server is in server-only mode, you will need to open all of the necessary ports in your real firewall (the one the SME is behind).

Depending on how old your router/firewall is, torrentflux should be using UPnP to automatically set up the ports. Maybe you have to enable it in the router/firewall?

UpNp isn't supportet by my router. its a speedport w900v from t-com.

All ports of the portrange Torrentflux is using, are forewarded correct. i'm sure, cause ktorrent works perfect, but on own pc and not at the server... :-(

There you might have the clue, you forwarded ports, which means you must have entered a specific destination, if this is not your SME Server the data packets will not arive on your SME Server but on another host your forwarded the ports to.

no,

i forwarded other ports to my computer. the ports for torrentflux are forewoarded at the server-ip. ;-)

it has to be a problem of the server, or torrentflux needs other ports then the opened.

Hey,

i found a solution to open one single port. But when enabling an second port, the first one will be closed, and only the second one is opened.

Code: [Select]

# config set mysql.init mysql.init TCPPort <port#> access public status enabled
# signal-event remoteaccess-update
By trying to open a port-range ( <port#>  => <port#1:port#2>, or <port#1-port#2> ) only the last port is opened :-(

The temporary solution is stopping the firewall every time, the server is rebootet. (no security problem, the server stands behind a router und is in only-server-mode)

Code: [Select]

# /etc/rc.d/init.d/masq stop
