Blitz Networking and Firewalls

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Programming/Blitz Networking and Firewalls

Tried to access my Blitz Server (home) from a secure network (work). Test failed. Has anyone else experimented with blitz networking in this department? Are there any workarounds within Blitz?

If you can ping the machine successfully my guess would be you are trying to communicate on a port number that is being blocked, I would try a simple http server at port 80 on your home machine and see if you can communicate with that from your work.

skidracer,

thanks, I will give it a try.

Also your works network may not be configured to readdress IP packets to the computer you are using.
