With OKwin4.11 you may see the following errors when attempting to serve a table:
NAT FORWARDING
Your computer IP address does not match what other people on the Internet see your computer IP address as. This means that you or your Internet Service Provider are using Network Address Translation (NAT) to provide your computer's IP address connection to the Internet. By default NAT does not allow for incoming TCP connections to your computer which is required for serving a table. You will need to configure your NAT connection sharing device to allow your computer to accept a TCP connection on the Table Serve TCP Port you specify in your OKwin preferences. The connection sharing device is commonly a dsl or cablemodem router you or your Internet Service Provider has installed in your home. Usually the setting to do this is called Port Forwarding and you specify the TCP port and your computer's IP address as the options. In a NAT environment each TCP port number can only be forwarded to one IP address, so if you have multiple computers you will need to set up serving on a different TCP port for each computer. Also, if your computer's IP address ever changes you will need to change the port forwarding configuration.
NOTE: after you have verified that you have port forwarding turned on, you might still get this error message if you are FIREWALLED. For example you could have a cablemodem router using NAT and also the built in firewall of WindowsXP turned on. See the table serve error FIREWALLED for more details.
FIREWALLED
Your computer can not accept connections on the Table Serve TCP Port you have set in the OKwin preferences. This means that something is blocking inbound connections to your computer on that port and no one will be able to join your table. You will need to identify what is blocking connections and configure it to allow access. It could be a corporate firewall, dsl or cablemodem router, your Internet Service Provider, WindowsXP, or firewall software running on your computer. We have instructions available for configuring some common firewalls:
WindowsXP firewall
Linksys firewall
VCOM System Suite 5 Net Defense Firewall
BlackICE Defender
PC-cillin 2003 Personal Firewall
McAfee Personal Firewall Plus
Microsoft Basestation MN500 wireless router
Norton Personal Firewall 3.0 or 4.0
Norton Personal Firewall 2003
será que alguém pode ajudar ?
obrigado
