I’ve been able to set up sending and listening to http requests locally using 127.0.0.1:8000. I want to try doing it using the internet now.
I have a VPN with port forwarding enabled, but sending requests to that IP address and port does not yield a response like it did when doing it locally.
Can anyone clarify which address I should be listening on in order to receive http requests from the internet? I tried 0.0.0.0 and a few inet addresses from ip add, but none of them work.
Soulseek can work behind NAT, you just can’t connect to everyone. It can appear working, but not actually be.
If you want to be sure, check if your soulseek port is actually open from the outside using something like this https://portchecker.co/
I know soulseek is working. It’s port-checking tool says my port is open and I can see my files being downloaded by other users.
