Two problems:
192.168.1.100 is a LAN IP, no one outside his LAN will be able to connect to that IP. You will need to use his global IP.
FATAL ERROR change SrcIP back to ANY if you changed it, otherwise something is blocking port 8001.

how do i get his global ip

and what do you mean by changing the srcIP back to any

Tom · 29th June 2003, 21:45

Have your friend visit: https://www.casterclub.com/iphost.php to get his IP. If he is on a LAN then he will need to configure the gateway device (i.e. router) too.
SrcIP is a setting in sc_serv.ini (the configuration file for the DNAS).
