Some basic questions

Post by vbmark »

I created the SC exe without problem but my listener never "hears" it.

The listener is listening on port 5500.

The PC running SC is behind a firewall with only ports 80 and 443 open.

I have tried the following in the helpdesk.txt:
-plugin -connect blah.no-ip.com:5500 -noregistry

I assume the -plugin argument causes SC to go out via port 443. Does that mean the listener needs to be listening to port 443 also?

Thanks!

SC
content of helpdesk.txt
----------------
[HOST]
-connect blah.no-ip.com:443 -noregistry

[DIRECT]
------------------------------



to your broadband router, (vnc viewer side)
forward port 443 to your internal IP of your computer hosting vncviewer listening.

viewer:
Start ... Run...
Open box: vncviewer -listen 443



remark:
-plugin
don't use it unless you are familiar with the basic usage of SC above
need only if you use msrc4plugin, need your own rc4.key
