Can not specify the listen host?

[Justin <Ju...@mail2000.com.tw>]

HI All,

 

     In my PC, I use ADSL to connect with internet. I had applied a fixed IP
from my ISP. After I start up my ADSL, the IP for interface PPPoE is the
fixed IP that I had applied. However, I find that my network card still got
another dynamic IP from my ISP. 

 

    When I try to start svnserve.exe by daemon mode, I found svnserve.exe is
listening on the dynamic IP. I had tried to force svnserve.exe to listen on
the fixed IP that I had applied, but it doesn't work. I had setup apache
server and it did work fine. 

 

    Did anyone have encountered this problem? Please help me to setup my
svnserve.exe and I can access it from internet. Thanks in advance.

 

Best regards,

Justin

You probably need to read up on the configuration options for your ADSL
modem:

1. Configure your PC/server box to have a static IP address, so that it does
not get one assigned dynamically by your ADSL modem.  In my case, my modem's
LAN IP is 192.168.2.1, and I assigned my subversion server an IP address of
192.168.2.15

2. In your modem's firewall there should be an option to forward packets on
a specific port (3690 for subversion) to a specific IP.  I set it up so that
it forwards packets sent from the outside to port 3690, to my fixed server's
LAN IP address, 192.168.2.15

3. Finally if your firewall is completely blocking port 3690, you would have
to ensure that packets do get through the ADSL modem.  You will need someone
from outside your network to test that for you, while you watch your
firewall.

First step though is access the subversion from within the LAN, and then try
the outside network.

Good luck.
