viewer will not start

Post by Handy-man »

Hello,

i`m trying to use the pchelpware rel. 1.0 so ik can help other people from my pc. it worked fine for me in my network but i want to use it over the internet.
in my network i used the repeater setup and as host repeater i used the IP adress of the computer where the viewer has to open.
The ip was 10.0.0.136. that worked fine. because when i wanted to contact from an other computer in my network i was able to see the desktop on my computer with the viewer.
but now i want to connect with my computer from outside my network so i used my outside ip as host repeater but when i want to start the viewer i will get a screen that says faild to connect.
what am i doing wrong here?

over internet, you can't use private ip address,
you must use public ip adress or FQDN

ready to use

Thanks but i tried it another way.
i used my dyndns name in the helpdesk file instead of a private adress.

like myname.mine.nu and that name is linked to my outside ip.

and on the viewer pc i used my internal ip.
now the pchelpware program works internal and also over the internet.
