Warning |
Changing ports is for advanced users only! If you don't
know exactly what you're doing chances are you're in for some serious trouble down the
road if you change them. Please do not play around with these settings, it's really only
for experts! |
DynamIP uses the following standard port settings:
NTP |
37 |
Standard time server port. |
HTTP |
80 |
This is the port used by DynamIP to connect
to web servers (HTTPD). Note that updating DIPS information is also done using HTTP, i.e.
be careful with changing this setting if you are using DIPS. If your local web server
(local HTTPD) is on another port than port 80 (e.g. 8080) you should change the
DIPS HTTPD
setting (see below). |
DIPS HTTPD |
80 |
This is the port of your local web server (HTTPD on your machine). DIPS
verifies the existence of a web server before DIPS information is uploaded. Note that you
can change this port directly from Setup|DIPS. |
POP |
110 |
Standard POP server port. |
WEBchat |
1498 |
DynamIP uses this port for WEBchat messages. |
UDPchat |
1499 |
DynamIP uses this port for IPchat messages. |
If you need to change any of the above ports you have to edit the file DynamIP.INI
(or whatever file you have defined to be your INI file with your command line parameters) as follows (note that the
standard ports are not written to the file, you only have entries for those ports that are
non-standard):
To change this port |
Add the following line to
DynamIP.INI |
Example with default values |
NTP |
PortNTP=<PortNumber>; |
PortNTP=37; |
HTTP |
PortHTTP=<PortNumber>; |
PortHTTP=80; |
DIPS HTTPD |
PortDIPSHTTPD=<PortNumber>; |
PortDIPSHTTPD=80; |
POP |
PortPOP=<PortNumber>; |
PortPOP=110; |
WEBchat |
PortWEBchat=<PortNumber>; |
PortWEBchat=1498; |
UDPchat |
PortUDPchat=<PortNumber>; |
PortUDPchat=1499; |
If you change the UDPchat port, you will obviously not be able to use IPchat with any
other DynamIP user (unless she/he changed the port to the same
number...).
If you want to revert to the standard ports you simply delete the non-standard entries
from the file DynamIP.INI. (do this when DynamIP is not
running!).
