Exposing my Spinnerette (please DON'T try it out)

mindrobots

EDIT: There appear to be some port forwarding issues. I work fine within my private network. External port scanners can see my 4 exposed ports (24, 25, 26, 27) as open unless I have a session then they see them as CLOSED but visible. My ISP IP address is correct. I need to go through all the configurations and see where I muffed it up. Thanks for helping!!

~~~~~~original posting~~~~~~~~

I'm not clever enough or good enough with my time to try a Spinner Contest project but I was able to get the IP_Server features of PropFORTH up and running on one of my Spinners and (hopefully) expose it to the Internet.

If I got things set up correctly in my router and the wind is right, you should be able to telnet to 50.43.128.228 on ports 23, 24, 25 or 26 and get a FORTH session. If it doesn't connect on the port you are trying, it may just be an 'in-use' port.

OK, so how do you know it's a FORTH session?

You should see something like this:

PropForth v4.5 2011MAY31 17:30 1

Prop0 Cog0 ok

and if you type in: cog?

you should get a list of what the 8 cogs are running.

IF you know FORTH, you can play. IF you know FORTH, you can also knock me down or wipe me out if you feel malicious.:frown:

I'm going to leave it up and running as much as I can. If you get connection type errors, please let me know I may have my router buggered up!

I'll have to head off to some public Wifi place later to test my router setup in person.

Thanks!! Have FUN!!

Rick,

'Tried all four ports: no response. Maybe it's just too popular. I'll try again later.

Thanks Phil!

I have a feeling it's my router config and NOT popularity! I'll go check the log and see if you're out there knocking!

No luck for me either. Tried all four ports, no connection.

Thanks, Bean! It seems to be an internal error. I may load up PE-BASIC or a HTML server on my other Spinner and expose it to the world to see if I can forward anything to my network.

Appreciate the feedback......stay tuned!
