RE: [U2] telnet problem
Well, one thing I can see and that is the 192 address is internal only. The actual STATIC IP of your connection is the only thing the outside world sees. You will either need to setup the router to forward that port to the internal address you mentioned or enable VPN tunneling. I have a similar internet connection setup and I have tried the latter, but never had any success in getting the VPN to work. Rich Taylor | Senior Programmer/Analyst| VERTIS 250 W.

RE: [U2] telnet problem
George, You have to tell your router to direct all calls to port 23 (telnet) to the internal IP address of your Windows 2003 server. Login to your router and select the ADVANCED tab. Next, select the FORWARDING tab and make an entry that looks like this ... Ext. Port TCP UDP IP Address Enable Telnet 23 to 23 Yes No 192.168.1.201 Yes That should do it!

RE: [U2] telnet problem
The problem is that the address 192.168.1.201 is an internal address only. Your LinkSys router is the only thing on the outside that is able to see it. You need to set it up so that when you try connecting to it that it will pass through to your UniData box. Please realize that this is a fairly big security hole. There should be some features on the LinkSys router to help make it more secure: authentication, allowed IP address, non-standard ports, VPN, etc. Colin Alfke Now in not quite as chilly Calgary -Original Message- From: George Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I am trying to telnet to a windows 2003 machine that is running unidata 6.1 from the outside world.

RE: [U2] telnet problem
192.168.x.x is an internal network only class C IP group. Your LinkSys is the only visible device from outside unless you set it up to allow connections to your internal computer. That is way more than I'm going to go into in this message, though. Just remember, anything you open up to yourself, you potentially open up to everyone else.

RE: [U2] telnet problem
I can quickly give you a few pointers. An IP of 192.168.1xxx means that the machine is connected to a router. You have to connect the static IP assigned by your internet service provider or, or if you have a dynamic IP, get a name from a company like TZO. Then your router will need to be programmed to pass traffic for a particular port to your machine at 192.168.1.201. I think that port is determined by you application, I can't quite remember I can offer more help if I'm at my router so I can double check what I'm saying and get the proper names for things. You can email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] tonight if you have any other questions.

Re: [U2] telnet problem
It is likely that this private IP address is behind a firewall/router and you will have to contact the administrator of this router to open the router to the IP address of your client machine.

RE: [U2] telnet problem
Please remember that this will open port 23 to everybody coming in from the outside. You should perhaps consider using ssh or similar secure access. If you are coming from a static IP perhaps you can restrict access to that IP only.
