[NTLK] Correct NPDS settings ?

[Pawel Piotrowski]

Hi Tom,

As other people confirmed, the port 3680 is only for NPDS Tracker Server. So, if you want to setup your NPDS Server (Newton) to be visible outside your network, you need to do just simple port forwarding. Pickup any port and later on setup your NPDS with this port.

I saw your Newton connected to my NPDS Server Tracker, so I assume that you managed to finally set this up :) Well done and welcome in NPDS family :) 

You can check my main NPDS server: http://newton1.applenewton.co.uk:8070/

Like you see, I did some modification in the original HTML code and outsourced the graphics to make this page a little more interesting.

Now I am working on something opposite - simple text page, that could be properly displayed on Newton’s web browser.


Anyway, please feel free to contact me if you want to cooperate.

Cheers,
Pawel
