You will need to set up port forwarding on your firewall or router.

You should also make sure that the Windows Firewall is not blocking TWGS.

Do you work for a company that is using a proxy server for web access?
Many companies block telnet altogether, or only allow it from specified server IP addresses. My point is, it is probably being blocked by your network setup at work, and it is likely working fine on your home machine. If you like, post your ip address and one of us can telnet to your machine and make sure it is accessible. _________________ twgs: telnet: reviving this in Sep 2019 web: http://www.roguegalaxy.com |
