If I want my WG3.3NT server and my Synchronet server on the same computer can I not do that? The internal IP is 192.168.1.103, so I can telnet into that fine, but if I want to rlogin to 192.168.1.103:2323 it tells me that is not a valid IP address. I would think since I can have synchronet look at any port for rlogin I can have the 2 on the same machine. Any ideas or suggestions to point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Neal

In your router you need to set the ip for Syncro on port 513 (standard rlogin port). Set it so it works only local and will not allow outbound traffic. The Wg server should be port 80 for web inbound and 23 for telnet inbound (also set in router). You would be best to use 2 lan cards for this each haveing its own IP.

be sure to use my GALRLGND replacement so you can change worldgroup's default rlogin port so you wont have binding issues.
