Leginon

h1. An example of working port-forwarding configuration

h2. (by Brian J. Gibbens)

For those interested, this is how I set up Leginon on the TF20 in the

Kornberg lab at Stanford with the following configuration:

# TECNAI_COMPUTER (Windows XP) not connected to network, but connected

directly to Tecnai F20 and to

TF20SUPPORT_COMPUTER (Windows XP) through two separate routers. Static

IP addresses on all routers.

# TF20SUPPORT_COMPUTER connected to network, and set up as a gateway

for the TECNAI_COMPUTER through a directly connected separate router.

Gateway setting (IP address of the TF20SUPPORT_COMPUTER) was added to

the TCP/IP settings on the router on the TECNAI_COMPUTER that connects

to the TF20SUPPORT_COMPUTER.

# WEBSERVER_DATABASE_COMPUTER (Suse 11.1 Linux) with MySQL, PHP, and

Samba share for drive mapping on PC's. Connects to TF20SUPPORT_COMPUTER

through network.

--Norton firewall settings on TF20SUPPORT_COMPUTER configured to allow

communication to both '1' and '3'.

--Appropriate IP addresses and hostnames added to the hosts files

(C:/WINDOWS/System32/drivers/etc/hosts.txt on Windows PC's and

/etc/hosts on Linux). '2' and '3' listed in hosts file on '1'; '1' and

'3' listed in hosts file on '2'; and '2' only listed in hosts file on

'3' since all communication from '1' to '3' through '2' will appear to

come from '2'.

--Program for port forwarding (AUTAPF) installed on TF20SUPPORT_COMPUTER

and set up to forward all appropriate ports to IP address of the router

on TECNAI_COMPUTER that connects to TF20SUPPORT_COMPUTER.
