OK, now I think I am following you. I wasn't thinking
of port forwarding as tunneling. Sorry. I think you
would have to do that, as someone wrote that the RPC
broker communications are in clear-text. But right

Can PuTTY do this?

Yes, I have done that - put the server out in the DMZ and had someone connect
CPRS to it, but I did not consider what I did to be secure. However, with
port forwarding (tunneling), and private key public key authentication, I
think it could be made secure. I think what you have done to CPRS co
Nancy,
I'm still not completely following you here. I think
you are saying that you want to set up one server that
everyone could connect to, so we could colaborate.
The only need for port forwarding would be if the
server is behind a firewall. But one could also make
the server secure (i.e. sh
Just speculating on remote connections securely, using open source resources,
over an Internet connection. I think port forwarding would work, but for
that, you need a fixed port, so I am wondering about whether or not there is
a way to do it without having to fix up and recompile CPRSChart ev
Nancy,
I'm too lazy to read the documentation right now. But
I will tell you that I'm pretty sure that the client
specifies which port the server is to call back on.
So I don't know that a server patch would fix that.
What is your motivation in this issue? What problem
are you working on?
Kev
Is this patch the patch to allow connections on a limited number of ports? I
can't quite follow all of it, so I would like a guru to explain it in a way I
can follow, please - i.e., dumb it down big time, please. The documentation
is in the RPC Broker section of the VDL.
