Twonkymedia and (Software) firewalls
Posted: Thu Apr 30, 2009 10:19 am
Which ports do I have to open up on a software Linux firewall for TWonky Media Server to work, with a default install that is?
From the FAQ:
"What ports are used by the TwonkyMedia Server?
The ports used by the server are as follows: UDP ports 1030, 1900, 9080 TCP ports starting at 9000 until a free port is found."
Translation from ENGRISH to ENGLISH: Open UDP ports 1030, 1900, 9080 and at least TCP 9000. All of these are OUTGOING connections FROM your TwonkyMedia Server machine. 9000 can also be INCOMING if you want to remotely manage it.
It's OK. I had to dig for this. When my Xbox 360 didn't see anything, I looked around for this and there it was. Would have been nice to know at INSTALL.
