dburner Posted December 16, 2007 Author Share Posted December 16, 2007 and the relation to AutoIt3 is ....what ?Using AutoIt 3 functions(TCPConnect, TCPListen, TCPAccept,...) of course. He has a server script and i have the client and i want to connect to him. We are not on the same network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevin Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 (edited) I have no idea what to do with AutoIt, but I'm working on my CCNA. I'm not too far along though... I'm assuming he has a router too, yes? It would have to involve some kind of port forwarding probably. That's how the router will know which computer to send the requests to. (Or I could be totally off, but that's how you have to set up remote admin software sometimes, otherwise it doesn't know where to go) Edited December 16, 2007 by Nevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevin Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 (edited) LOOK LOOK I'm smart! I WAS RIGHT! hahahaha. Sorry. Couldn't help myself. Edit: Can't help but notice, but it says dburner's been reading a while, so maybe he's confused. Your friend has to log into his router and forward the port you use. It's probably called IP filter or something like that in the router menu. It has to forward that port to the PRIVATE IP address of the computer you're trying to connect to. If there is any fear that the IP might change, I would suggest statically assigning the IP address for the machine you always connect to.

BigDod Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 If you go to www.portforward.com you will find instructions for most routers/switches.
