Could it be that the attempt to connect to the socket is treated as a connection to a different machine (the internal ip) by the flash movie?
The flash movie is accessed through my public ip. Is this an ip issue? As far as I know flash only permits connection to a socket of the same machine where the swf is located. I then tried to access the page through a remote machine but it didn't load the flash movie (there was no error message, but the loading bar showed very slow progress, after a minute or so I disconnected). Accessing the html page through and connecting to the socket did work correctly now! Meanwhile I thought I had fixed the problem because locally I managed to get it to work by using the absolute path in the html file to access the flash movie. It seems this should be ok as the server is running fine locally, or not? RE: Red Hat 7.3 firewall settings? safra (TechnicalUser) What could I possibly have done, that makes accessing the socket server through 'localhost' failing too now? Meanwhile, accessing the socket server through ' now doesn't work either! In the browser a dialog box appears, saying 'connect: connection refused'. Or does 'netstat -t' only show details about actual data transfers that have passed tcp sockets and not the state of the sockets? Nothing appears but 'active internet connection (w/o servers)' and some headers.
Netstat -t (which, according to some information I found, should list all tcp sockets). Does this mean that the port is open and can be accessed remotely or is this not necessarily the case and is it only listed because of the perl script. The port I am using is on the list in 'listen' mode. I will try the iptables later on, first I like to figure out why this socket connection isn't working. port 6000 is listed as well so it is checking above 1024 too.
This made me think that perhaps there are more ports open. It says, "interesting ports on localhost". RE: Red Hat 7.3 firewall settings? flawless69 (Programmer) 15 Jul 02 16:20 If the port I am using is open, should the second url then work as well from the local system?
flash movie loads but connection with socket is NOT made One other thing to eliminate any other possible problem: How can I remove firestarter completely as it doesn't seem to help me with this. GnomeUI warnings and 'firewall script restarted' If I still can't connect from a remote machine then I am at least sure the reason why I can't connect to the socket server remotely is not a security issue. What I am trying to do now is first get rid of all security (this is no problem as I am on at testing system) to be sure that all ports are open so the server can receive and send data back through the open port. Does "nmap -sS -O localhost" show all open ports or is it possible that other ports are also open. Still only shows around 6 open ports and not the one I am trying to use.
