Hub Managment thru LocalNetwork

[BoJlk]

Greetings.
I've recently upgraded my hub to the Main server in my Network and enabled internet sharing, when connected with the DC thru the network onto my Hub on the server.
I know i need to setup the DC into Passive mode.
but the DCDM client that i use is checking with the RAW command the connection and downloading file lists to check for ADSL search for forbiden files shared.
I'ts not working because the filslist won't download, from passive users (as far as i know i can't as long as i'm passive too)

all i ask is: are those settings correct or i need to configure something esle?

[[NL]Pur]

passive can't download from passive,

So you need too forward one of the outside port to your inside computer , so you can be connected as active user.

[BoJlk]

So i forward the Hub's port or the DC's ports?

*edit can it be done with the Default Windows Firewall

[[NL]Pur]

yes you can do that in that screen.

[BoJlk]

okey!, can it still be done differently? with application maybe ?

And i do the above on the Server or on the PC i run the DC Client on?

(if on server so on the internet shared LAN Card?)

[[NL]Pur]

on the server

[BoJlk]

anyway, wich ports do i forward? the HUB port?

[[NL]Pur]

a port to use for you dc++

[BoJlk]

What are the ports for the DCDM++?
UDP:3234
TCP: 2700

hi m8  ...


try this  ...

Port Mapper

[BoJlk]

Looks promising, thanks ??????Hawk??????!
But i still don't know wich ports to forward?
i use on the other computer DCDM++ Client
What ports should i configure

[[NL]Pur]

whatever you like, and have setuped in your dcdm

[BoJlk]

here?

[[NL]Pur]

yes

[BoJlk]

tnx...(please expand your explanations)

/edit
Well i've made the following settings:
in the DC i designated a static port and in the port-mapper (on the server) i've made forword the port to the DC's PC address...
And it doesn't work, any other suggestions?

[bastya_elvtars]

download analogx portmapper and map the desired ports on the server PC to the other.

[BoJlk]

I'm afraid i'm repeating myself... ?(

I've donwloaded the "analogx portmapper"...the rest is above.

i  think  all this was not a bit clear of what he  actually was  wanted..
 but i think i got a few answers to my questions .. tho i am  not still so sure as to  what this information was for .
  so i will post my query..

I have a lan and have 2 comps hooked up . the other ones got a lan ip(192.xx.xx.xx). and the lan is routed thru a switch  and i have a  broad band connection.

 what i want to do is insted a of having the server in my  main comp. i  want it to be on the other one with the lan ip . can someone helP

Qs

+ how would this effect the main comp if possible to be done
 +will users still get better access as if the server was in main comp
 +can i still have active mode
 +Anthing else i need to know?

hi


ive tried  many a way to get active   through local network using I-Net connection sharing.

port mapping will allow you to get ppls lists but i can get it to show anything in search..

also  i found  it reports  every user as having the internal ip of the computer ...  

maby im just thick  but i havnt managed tru active yet..

[jsjen]

I can administer through network.

What I did was set up each pc with a fixed ip on the lan

I then set up udp and tcp ports for both computers on the router.

I then edited the hosts file under system32/drivers (on xp machine) to tell the pc how to get to the server.


Oh and i set up a no-ip address for the pc to be able to be active on the //www.


Sorry I cant explain it very well

I now can connect in active mode

Some how that worked.

I will try to explain it a better way soon

[??????Hawk??????]

i  dont use a router



Isp/Phone line -----> Usb Modem -----> Server ------> 10/100 24 port Switch-----> rest of computers.

Hub running on server with internet connection sharing enabled..

client on one of the other computers.

but im no Network expert so maby there is a way.

??????Hawk??????

[jsjen]

you could still test the hosts file theory

[??????Hawk??????]

hi m8  ..


maby you could do a  " Dumb Ass Guide "   for me to  try...

i can just about get a simple network to run  ..  but thats  it  ..    

cheers

[jsjen]

Why do you share the internet connection that way?


Isp/Phone line -----> Usb Modem -----> Server ------> 10/100 24 port Switch-----> rest of computers

why not like


Isp/Phone line -----> Usb Modem ------> 10/100 24 port Switch -----> Server \ rest of computers

I guess you dont have a switch with that ability.

Can you tell me what equipment you have on the network.

May be a good idea to look at getting a multiple port modem/router Thingo

[jaggudada]

I

Isp/Phone line -----> Usb Modem -----> Server ------> 10/100 24 port Switch-----> rest of computers

is that server= windows 2003 server or sumthing if so i a have same configuration and need the same answers.. tho mine is win XP
