Suggestion for new Feature

gewfie · 08-23-2002, 02:53 PM

Say I have 2 NICs in my machine, 1 for an internal network and 1 for the external network. Is it possible to put a feature into flashfxp that allows you to specify which connection FlashFXP should always use.

The reason I'm suggesting this is that everytime I reboot my machine, FlashFXP always tries to use the Internal NIC, so I must go and disable this NIC and then connect to a site with FlashFXP and then re-enable the Internal NIC.

Just a thought.

As far as I know there is no way to specifically select a network interface. The interface is assigned by windows depending on the routing rules.

I'm not sure if this would help but, Have you tried using the "bind to ip" option on the proxy tab?

Yea I suppose it is hard to have FlashFXP be able to do that.

Well I will try the Bind Packets to Address like you said in the Proxy Tab in Options and see what I can come up with.

Going to reboot here in a minute then will post and let people know how it went.
