Re: [Hardhats-members] CPRS errors.

[Greg Kreis]

Some of the newer routers have a feature to let you define a mapping of the MAC address to a fixed IP.  This way, your router will assign a known IP when your computer connects to the router, without you having to set the computer up for static IP.  I use this feature to guarantee the IP that my printer, server, etc. are assigned.

It means that any signal that would otherwise be blocked is automatically sent to the DMZ computer. You might have a problem if your computer gets a new IP address from the router every time it boots up (i.e. dynamic IP addressing), as you would have to change the IP address of the DMZ computer each time.

The only way to access a VistA server over the Internet that I know of is if it is outside the fire wall. When you have your router connected instead of connecting directly to your modem, you are inside a firewall and do not have a routable IP. Most routers have a setting to allow you to put your individual computer outside of the firewall. find out your computers IP, if it is a Linux machine use /sbin/ifconfig and if a Windows machine use Strart- Run-CMD-IPconfig and find your IP, something like 192.168.0.101 and then configure your router to put that outside of the firewall. Hopefully, the individual computer has a software firewall installed that you can configure to have an opening only for CPRS so that your computer is not vulnerable to attack.

My question has to due with CPRS and Delphi errors. I am working on VistA over an internet connection. I am encountering a couple of problems. 1.) I can access CPRS as long as my router is disconnected, but when my router (netgear wireless G) is connected I get a timeout error (WSAETIMEDOUT) and don't even get connected to enter an access/verification code. Is there some security setting that interferes with CPRS? My router currently has the following protocols: NAT, SPI, DoS, IDS, WEP encryption and some other wireless security. 2.) I get an error trying to access some templates. When I get into CPRS and click on the notes tab and then the templates section. When I click on some templates an error comes up and my window is closed. Following is the error message: Error encountered. Function was: recv Error was: 10107 and when I hit OK button I get the following error Error encountered. Function was: recv Error was: 6. Sometimes I get the message invalid pointer error. Thank you for your help.
