gabkosoft698 Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 My PC is in private network ,so i am behind a linux server (firewall/dhcp/samba/squid/routing etc.)I asked our administrator for a little favour (it was about forwarding a port) ,because I needed it to reach my PC through SSH and BT stuff.So he forwarded a port 222 to my local ip address. The SSH is working pretty well. But when I set the port in utorrent ( Options > Preferences > Connection > ... ) to 222 ,the utorrent port checker -> Error! Port 222 does not appear to be openhttps://www.grc.com/x/portprobe=222 -> says that port 222 status is "STEALTH" and protocol application is : rsh-spx, Berkeley rshd with SPX authfor example http://www.t1shopper.com/tools/scan.php4 -> xxx.yyy.62.42 isn't responding on port 222 (rsh-spx)I don't know where is the problem then , the port 222 is forwarded and it's working with putty/ssh but with utorrent is not.I am a bit lazy to search around ,because this is pretty specific problem ( I think ). With common Vigor router is portforwarding pretty easy and it works well , I've done few pf myself ,but I can't find out what's the problem here. The admin said ,the port is forwarded and that's all. How should I proceed ?I using WinXP and Ubuntu HH. I have no firewall just PG2/Mobloquer.Thanks for reply and sorry for my bad english. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 You closed Putty first right? Too apps can't share the same port. What's your network status icon say on mouse over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabkosoft698 Posted July 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 Of course , as far as I know only one appplication can handle one port at the same time. My putty is running now , but it uses port 22 , because im logged on our server (irssi). Port 222 is for external purpouse ,there is no connection from WAN now, so port 222 is not in use.EDIT : LOL ! I have an idea ! That remote port 222 is forwaded to local port 22 , im going to write an email to admin.EDIT 2 : So our admin changed the rules in iptables . remote port 222 si forwarded to local port 222 ,the utorrent port checker says that the port is CLOSED ( so the port is not in use ) when i type "sudo /usr/sbin/sshd -p 222" the port checker says the port is OPEN :-) ( because of packet response I think ),or if I run deluge on ubuntu on port 222 the port checker says OPEN , when i close it then CLOSED , and finally when I run uTorrent under 222 listening port the client says "Listen error , you should change ur l port" , weird- under WinXP it works with Azureus (Vuze) but with uTorrent is not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
