I somehow forgot to record last night's episode of LOST. I've lurked here
for some time so from other post I went to Poopli and registered. That was
about 10:00 am and no e-mail. I tried to log in and it said -

I had all bulk mail set to auto delete so I changed that and followed these
instruction at 12:14 PDT. Alas, no activation. I know my Internet ID and
inbound port #. Is there anyone that can help me?

I'm soooooooo LOST!

TIA!

Maybe if you tell us your ID# we can help, until you've got poopli all
working? (I highly recommend getting a test clip first before you make
any real requests.)

One thing I had to do was set up port forwarding on my router so that
the port I choose for the replay, is sent to the replay, after that the
IVS tester (There is a link on the poopli site) said "Successful" and
just now a show I'm wanting is about 70% transfered (This is one BIG
transfer folks, thankfully the sharing replay has one BIG hard drive 🙂

The other thing I'd already done was static DCHP so the replay is always
at the same address x.y.z.110 within my house (where x.y.z. is the
normal first 3 on the home network) note, 110 is just how I choose to
set it, In my house replay #1 is 100, Replay #2 is 110, if I ever get a
replay #3 it will be 120,, 130, 140, up to 250 but I don't think I'll
ever have THAT many replays 🙂 I think you can see the pattern though,
last digit a zero = a replay, personal code)

Wait till I have everything up and working, I'm going to have to do some
fancy "Coding" what with 2 different versions of 'doze, linux and
replays all on the same router

Once I did that the test was successful, the test clip came in, the show
I needed came in (got watched and burned to DVD-RW for my daughter) and
all was right with the replay world once again

The other thing: Are you able to log into poopli? From your message I
get the feeling that is where the problem lies
