Newt and PB are fed from the same router, and they both have 192.168.253.x
addresses (Newt is 110 and PB is 100). PB gets its address from the Gatelock
(firewall/router/DHCP), and since Newt can't I give it a fixed IP in the
Internet Setup. But AFAIK the Dock app does not use the Internet Setups,
correct?
I also continue to have an issue getting NewtFTP to connect to the PB (which
has FTP checked in Sharing). This also does not work. I even tried
configuring the Gatelock box to route all port 21 (FTP) traffic to the PB -
no success.
At this point, NCU is much more important to me, so I'd really like to get
it going.
Thanks,
Dave
