[SOLVED] sync through VPN

[Andre_H]

Hi there,

is there any documentation how to get access from android devices to a local MMW via VPN?

i have an VPN tunnel running on my android phone (router shows as active), and a forwarding of port 14592 (thats what MMW shows on "shares") from router to MMW-Computer-IP, but simply "sync now" doesn't find anything.

What else has to be done?

Thanx!

I think SSDP discovery won't work in VPN, so you will need to add the MMW server/port manually in MMA.
i.e. go to MMA > UPnP, click the + button
and put this to the Device destination:

http://<your PC IP address>:<MW server Port>/DeviceDescription.xml

e.g. http://192.168.0.17:14592/DeviceDescription.xml

Then go to MMA > Options > Select sync server
and select the MMW server that you added manually in the UPnP node.

Seems not to work, i cant add a server that already exists. New entry ist deleted after "save"

OK, so the MMW server is visible/accessible in MMA > UPnP, but isn't browseable ?

I can't explain what might have changed, I still "only" see the one internally connected server with a VPN connection, but it is now visible & accessible & browseable, just synced successfully.

Nice!
