Hi Gurus,

Scenario: I've come across a strange network problem. I host a web server (Win2K3) on a virtual PC (host is Win XP), here in UK. I redirect my website using DNSExit and been using it for different apps since last 2 years. I have only 5-6 concurrent users. Most of the users are from a office in India.

Problem: Since yesterday no one from the India office can access my website (Sorry, I can not give web address)....

Hi.

I couldn't quite find the right way to formulate my topic.
Its about IIS,aspx,C#.

How can one use a resource(ex. image) in the web front end to which user does not have access (its on computer that's behind a firewall)?

I presume i have to read the image with the webserver(c#) and write it in a temp folder to which the user has access so that the browser on the user side can load the image....

I've just been looking around for ages to figure this out, but couldn't find the answer... so felt compelled to write about it.

When I try to run my Python Module, two messages pop up consecutively:
1. "Socket Error: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it"
2. "IDLE's subprocess didn't make connection. Either IDLE can't start a subprocess or personal firewall software is blocking the connection"
... what should I do about this to enable it to work properly??

Does anyone have any good opinions on a better firewall to use other then the pre installed one on mac osx. Possibly a freeware or opensource one that has good options for configurations. Thanks.
