Title: Can WebGizmo magically find the Library Server like Gizmo can?
Post by: greg.smalter on April 07, 2012, 11:10:32 am

Gizmo simply asks for the Library Server code and uses it to magically find the IP of the server, and tries it. If that fails, it even more magically figures out the external IP of the server and tries that, too. This is awesome.

Is there a way to get equivalent functionality for WebGizmo? Thanks.

There's an updated page:
http://jriver.com/webgizmo.html

We'll switch wg.jriver.com after some more testing of the new page.

Is there a WebGizmo mechanism that will allow for a proxy or extensible URL?  My use of this functionality would be for having the WebGizmo to connect to a specific MC zone. This is a small issue, but could be a benefit to the WAF of my soon to be deployed audio server.

Being able to type 'office' or 'WebGizmo/office' in the browser and having it open to the office zone seems as though it would be more intuitive for people other than myself to navigate.

Thank you.

for webgizmo i use
www.no-ip.com/services/managed_dns/free_dynamic_dns.html

They give you a free address then you just either, if you have a compatible router setup ddns or run the free software on your computer to keep the ip of your router updated..

You'll end up with something like this

www.Yourname.Bounceme.net

then just add :PORT Number/Gizmo/ at the end of the address..
