Three (or less) easy steps.

1. If you have a firewall, open the necessary port(s)*.
2. If You have a router (and you do ), configure it to forward the necessary port(s)* to the DNAS machine. Note: Some routers call it port-forwarding, some call it virtual server.
3. Enjoy.

* you'll definately need to open/forward portBase (default is 8000). if you expect to let folks outside your private lan source the DNAS, then open/forward portBase+1 (default is 8001).

The default DNAS portBase section of the sc_serv.ini/conf file is:

code:
; PortBase. This is the IP port number your server will run on.  The

; value, and the value + 1 must be available.  If you get a fatal error when

; the DNAS is setting up a socket on startup, make sure nothing else on the

; machine is running on the same port (telnet localhost portnumber -- if you

; get connection refused then you're clear to use that port).  Ports < 1024 

; may require root privledges on *nix machines.  The default port is 8000.

PortBase=8000
