client view on LAN - deanb44 - Sep 15th, 2011 Im new to FT and have set up 3 forms and its working great. I have searched the forums, have a Xampp server in house hosting a site. Is it possible to have clients view submissions in the same LAN? RE: client view on LAN - Ben - Sep 16th, 2011 Hi Dean, It all depends on whether your LAN has a public face: can people access it from outside? Your LAN will need to have an external IP address where people can access the webpages, otherwise no, it can't be done. Good luck! - Ben RE: client view on LAN - deanb44 - Sep 16th, 2011 Thanks for the quick reply, Ill have to ask the network admin about that. I was thinking there might be an alias that could be put in the config.php to solve that. RE: client view on LAN - deanb44 - Sep 22nd, 2011 Ok so i checked and we do have a publice face to the lan, I am able to view from out side the lan. I have setup a similar enviroment at home and have no problems viewing on the lan there. And the only difference i can see is a different broadband provider (home is cable)(work DSL) I have checked the firewalls on the DSL router and short of putting the server in a DMZ i've opened it up but cant get the view. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance RE: client view on LAN - deanb44 - Oct 1st, 2011 I have found the answer after a couple of weeks of reading and asking questions so i thought i would share. As Ben said there has to be a public facing to the internet, although there is another part that must be met. The most important is that you must have hardware that supports NAT loopback. When i tested at home i have a cable modem that is a basic bridge and with a little luck i have a router that supports NAT loopback. At the office we have a DSL modem/router that does not support NAT loopback. So I called my DSL provider and got help to configure our modem/router to operate in bridged mode and used a the same router that i have at home. Also take note even though router models may be the same they might have different hardware versions as did mine, I found a custom firmware that allowed me to turn on the feature. RE: client view on LAN - Ben - Oct 3rd, 2011 Nice, thanks so much for posting the solution! Neat problem (+ solution). - Ben |
