Michael, "That was easy".... I didn't think I had the MS firewall enabled but sure enough it was and port 9090 was not enabled. Enabling it gave me instant access to the slimserver. Thanks for the tip.
While researching the CLI I came across an article which describes controlling slimserver from a VB program. The article is here --> http://www.pcw.co.uk/personal-computer-world/features/2204179/hands-controlling-slimserver-vb The VB program is available here --> http://www.itwriting.com/slimserver.php I can program VB and with port 9090 enabled this program connects right up to my slimserver so I can use it as a guide to build my own time based controlling program. Thanks everyone for the initial information...I'm sure I'll have some CLI questions as I get into it. -- mskvarenina ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mskvarenina's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17717 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53643 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
