Access problems

[Chris Harris]

I have 2 HFS servers on my home network. One HFS server is on my main PC. and one is setup on a backup PC.

The HFS on the backup PC is accessible from any internal computer , phone or any other browser, internal or external (via suitable port forwarding).

The HFS server on my main PC is ONLY accessible from a browser on this PC. I cannot access the HFS server from any other browser within or outside my home network. I have the appropriate port forwarding in place). I have the option "accept connections on any address".

Is this a problem with my HFS setup or something I have done with my computer?

are both hfs using the same port?

on main pc make sure the port is set to 8080

on backup pc make sure it port os set to 80

id have you read through and double check your network settings

if it doesn't work even inside your local network, then it must be the windows (or other) firewall. Check that

I found the problem; it was the ports on the Windows Firewall.
But the real problem was when I upgraded to the latest beta. I had the beta saved as hfs24b6.exe. I executed the program . Everything was working but the firewall  was for the old version. It seems that I should have replaced the old version with the new one; not executed the new version elsewhere!

Thanks to everyone for their assistance.

Will there be any issues if the Windows firewall is disabled? Thanks!
