You want to access the machine from remote, over the internet? IN that case, check out services like DynDNS. Or do you want to connect from some other machine on your local network?
So does mine. I think there is dynamic and static IP assignment.
I tried googling and this was the first hit. I don’t know how helpful it will be. It is full of annoying abbreviations which confirm we are right to have this FAQ.
Let me explain the problem more clearly When i run the application on the same machine using the IP address as 127.0.0.1 it works well. But, when i run the client on a separate machine using the current IP address that is 120.138.114.167 I get some sxception saying Connection refused to host address 120.138.114.167. I tried running the same application after turning my firewall off but still got the same exception
Note: the IP address that i have is dynamic that means it keeps changing every time I restart my router. I manually update the client file whenever the IP changes.
Runs perfectly on the same machine.
Then,
I changed the IP address in the ClientClass to 111.119.254.32, turned the firewall off and tried accessing the server from a different machine over the Internet and got the following error
Connection refused to host: 111.119.254.32 and some more nested Exception
Please help me spot where I'm Going wrong.
