Inbound network connections?
I am trying to get inbound connections to a app inside basilisk II (First Class) and within basilisk I can connect to the server no problem. But from outside basilisk the connections just hang. Is basilisk not able to accept incoming network connections? I heard this might be the case...

Re: Inbound network connections?
The "slirp" Ethernet networking that's configured in a basic install uses NAT, and so is essentially firewalled. If you modify your preferences file on the command line, you can add port forwarding:MarisaG wrote: ↑Sun Apr 24, 2022 11:51 pm I am trying to get inbound connections to a app inside basilisk II (First Class) and within basilisk I can connect to the server no problem.

Alternatively, you can switch from SLIRP networking to Tun/Tap networking, which is required for AppleTalk networking and other non-TCP/IP networking. This will also expose the emulated system directly to the network it's running on. There are wiki tutorials on how to set this up with OpenVPN and discussions regarding wired vs wireless networking on the forums.
