IWP and FileMaker Server Mac OS X

I am trying to see the database on the internet outside the lan [lan is working fine]

but when I put the ip address xx.xx.xx.xx:591 or the dyndns account myfilexx.cc:591 it does not show up

I have setup in the machine Mac OS X also http inside folder /Library/Webserver to publish simple websites and I can see them

Is it possible to have also IWP and FileMaker Server running same time?

1. Is your firewall or router blocking port 591? Have you correctly mapped the public IP to the internal IP? If you enabled web sharing and the firewall then the default settings do not include port 591.

2. FMS and FMP can't be run on the same machine at the same time - so, no. You neeed FMS Advanced.

this is the machine

dmaserver02.ftpaccess.cc

How to map the internal ip to the external ip?

I have a netgear router WGR614 v5

Thank you very much

Check out the router manual, a copy of which can be found at:

Chapter 7 discusses "port forwarding".

I always go to Portforward.com it steps you through pretty much any setup on any router very cool...

Hi there,

Just a quick question on port forwarding. Does it matter what you put in your "service_name" for the customised service in the router forwarding? And does this particular service_name get referenced anywhere? Or is it just a label that can describe for the administrator what it is for?

Thanks in anticipation.
