SC Firewalls/Routers

Post by rca221 »

My extremely disparate wish list is to have SC make a connection when both sides are behind a firewall and or router so that the remote side does not required firewall intervention. The remote side users are very concerned and do not understand just what they are giving permissions for. I would like to see SC become a truely single click for the remote side users. I thought a repeater would solve this remote side firewall intervention but does not appear to do so. This is the biggest thing on my wish list that is for sure. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not sure what you mean by the repeater not providing this functionality - that's exactly what it does (Mode 2). Both viewer and server create an OUTGOING connection to the publically accessable repeater, which joins the two ends together.

SERVER -> NAT -> INTERNET/REPEATER <- NAT <- VIEWER

No port forwarding, no security issues unless you are under very strict control where outgoing connections are restricted. There really isn't anything you could do about that, though. If your users are complaining that Norton Internet Security is asking them permission to allow an outgoing conection, it's not like SC can get around that.
