Does somebody know the portnumber that filemaker client uses for network connections?

thnx already!

5003

is that for all versions of FMP Server (I am on Mac 5.5v4) I am have problems seeing hosted files as a local host across a VPN.

pdrasnin -

Can you see the files if you enter the IP address into the hosts dialog?

yes.. That works.. my problem is that an outside FMP devoloper needs access into our VPN to fix a password protected script to make it work remotely.. I always thought VPN meant Local Host for all clients accross the network.. Am I missing something.. Many thanks in advance..

I believe it depends on your network setup - if your VPN assigns an IP address on the same subnet as the FileMaker machine hosting the databases then they should show up in the list - if not the developer will need to enter the IP. Some network devices will not pass the FileMaker hosts broadcast past the subnet.
