| Post subject: | R5A26 MythWeb login dialog timeout across firewall |
Third attempt to post this, so apologies if the others suddenly show up.... I did an upgrade install to R5A26. After the upgrade, I can only connect to MythWeb from inside my lan. When I attempt to connect from outside the lan, the browser displays the new login dialog, but after I enter the uid/pwd, the dialog sits there for a few minutes, and eventually the browser shows a timeout error. In case it matters, my router/firewall is set to forward connections on a high port (say 8888) on the firewall to port 80 on my KnoppMyth backend. Prior to the upgrade, all this worked fine, and the firewall setup has not changed. Any ideas? Dan |

try adding a trailing / to the URL that is how I have to do to access across internet. i.e. http://yourexternalip:8888/mythweb/ |

OK, now I'm totally confused. 1. That worked perfectly. 2. Why did that make any difference at all? 3. Should the "MythWeb" link in the main web page be changed to include the trailing slash? (since the trailing slash also works when connecting from insdie the lan). |

Just wanted to find more info on publishing the web page outside the firewall I have the problem that when i access my page internally I have to add host file pointing mythweb to the ip address of the mythbox. externally I am able to access the inital logon page but once I click on authentication the page times out. Any pointers would be great thanks |

I had a similar issue. from WAN, I could access mythweb via the WAN IP address of my (crappy belkin) router. From LAN I needed to access the LAN side IP address. attempts to access the WAN IP address from the LAN failed. I think this is a belkin issue. I have a dyndns entry pointing to the WAN address so from the WAN the following works: http://mydomain.dyndns.com/mythweb but as I stated above, that didn't work from LAN. To correct this, I added an entry to the hosts file on all of the boxes on my LAN (mythbox and 2 windows boxes) like this: Code: 192.168.1.50 mydomain.dyndns.com
192.168.1.50 is the ip address of my mythbox so, from the LAN, mydomain.dyndns.com resolves to my mythbox and from the WAN mydomain.dyndns.com resolves to the WAN IP of the router. |
