3) Incoming Packets on

address
IP =
165.165.124.33
4) Ruinet -i165.165.124.33 -k10000
Note the following:
1. On the machine running Ruinet, the firewall must allow UDP connections to port 1024 on
the WAN (Wide Area Network) interface / Internet.
2. On the network where the FieldServer is situated, the firewall must allow UDP
connections from the WAN interface / Internet to port 1024.
3. On the network where the FieldServer is situated, the firewall must redirect network
packets from the internet on port 1024 to the FieldServer’s IP address.
4. To connect to the FieldServer, run:
Ruinet –i165.165.124.33 –k10000
Note that the –k switch sets the timeout to 10 seconds or 10,000 ms. This is a timeout value
that should work well over the Internet, but it might be necessary to increase this further on
a very slow connection if timeouts keep occuring.
