Problem with connection
« on: November 10, 2004, 02:04:09 PM »
I have a little problem with connection.
I have IP in local network with 192.168.0.x interface behind NAT.
Yesterday it was working very well.
Today my admin give me a public IP  and configure NAT to give me all ports.
It's working but my aMule don't  working.
Still disconnect me from serwers and print in logfile:

Connected to DonkeyServer No4  (62.241.53.2:4242)
Error in serversocket: DonkeyServer No4 (62.241.53.2:4242): 7
Lost connection to DonkeyServer No4 (62.241.53.2:4242)
Disconnected

I thing it is because I'v internal ip 192.168.0.x and in the world 62.x.x.x.
Where is the function/option in my aMule to give my external IP ?

A have:
Mandrake 10.0 with emule 2.0.0rc7
Ealier I had 2.0.0rc6.

It's my eht0 config
[root@Raku .aMule]# ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0F:EA:32:D2:3E
          inet addr:192.168.0.141  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

You don't have option to give aMule access to external IP. There is no difference in the way aMule uses external or internal IPs. any way, you don't have an external IP, since your ifconfig reports your IP as 192.168.0.141.

He might have a external IP, mapped to the internal one. So internally is local but externally global. Contact your net admin :P Is not an amule issue.

We can't help there. You must ask your net admin for help on whoe the LAN is configured. sorry :(

Good luck!

My administrator said, all ports was forward to my internal IP.
My network adapter has only one IP like 192.168.0.x with DHCP. This IP is only in LAN. In the WAN a have external IP like 62.1.1.x.

All ports from external IP (62.1.1.x) is forwarding to my internal interface (192.168.0.x).
From WAN (from other computer) when I using ssh, www, webmin - it's working.

When I try to use aMule (mldonkay too) display me users, and number of files but don't have  connect.

Have you eny expirience with routers or configure aMule from NAT with external IP ?

Maybe your administrator forwarded only the well-known ports, and not all of them? ask him to explicitly forward the amule ports (defaults are 4662 and 4672 IIRC) and then tell us your results.
