Re: portforwarding question
Hello again Ralf,
You are correct in the assumption of using port 8080 below. That is
exactly what I am doing now, (it works great BTW!). Is 8080 the
correct port to use? Now that 8080 will be in use, can I just start
pulling ports out of the air for other web services, (that is if I
had any others)? I am not very "port smart" yet.
Thanks again,
-Bill
