Hello,

I've looked around but cant find any troubleshooting tips on getting the synchronet telnet javascript web interface on my site to work. I see the cool synchronet ansi but when I hit connect it turns blank and never logs in. Im sure its simple but I can't figure it out. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris

I figured it out. Open port 1123.

Seems to work on the http version of the bbs and not the https. I still have to figure this one out.

There's two ports that need to be opened for fTelnet -- 1123 is used when
connecting via HTTP, and 11235 is used when connecting via HTTPS.

So hopefully opening that second port will do the trick.

AHHH! Port 11235 being opened allowed https telnet to work. Thanks!!
