RE: Quick SLIMP3 question

["Claudio Mio" <claudio.mio@xxxxxxx>]

That's right, the UDP ports only need to be open if you have setup the
SLIMP3 player remotely.

However it sounds like Michael is using port forwarding to get access to
the web interface. In which case you would not use <mp3_server>:9000
but
<firewall>:<port> where <firewall> is the ip address of
the firewall and
<port> is the port number being forwarded to 9000 on the MP3 server.

Cheers
Claude

Just to be clear - the information that Claudio has supplied is to
access a
SliMP3 player (hardware) remotely - meaning that the player would be
located
remotely from the server software. I thought you were wanting to access
the
SliMP3 server from a web browser (remotely), which should work just
using
port 9000 - I just tried this and it works for me using a NAT based
firewall.

Kevin - I can access FTP, PC Anywhere, Web site etc all through my
firewall/router, but not SLIMP3 - I will give the ideas Claude suggested
a go.

Many thanks

Michael

No - you should be able to access the SliMP3 server externally like
this.

Can you access it internally from another machine on your home network -
or
if you don't have one can you access it as  http://192.168.1.1:9000
<http://192.168.1.1:9000/> 
replacing the ip address with the ip address
of
your machine ?  Is this the first service that you have tried to access
externally - for example have you ever tried to run a web server on your
PC
?

BTW you must access and map the address of the server not the actual
player
(just in case you were trying to do otherwise). Not sure if you have a
NAT
firewall or how your addresses are exposed to the internet.

Just got it today. A big thank you first of all to Ken Watt for all his
hard work!! THANKS!
I have opened a port on my firewall and mapped it to the SLIMP3 port
9000 but I can't see anything from the outside world. Is this normal??

Regards

Michael
