DSD FMPA and DSDPlus on different machines?

[motomeso]

I'm trying to get FMPA and DSD to work across different machines on my local network but the TCP connection is being refused. When I run FMPA and DSDPlus locally on the same machine this works fine. The outbound and inbound TCP connections were set in their respective .bat files and the firewalls have been turned off on both machines.

Is there something I am missing? DSD Fastlane version 2.395 for reference.

Just throwing out some thoughts: are you using the correct internal IP address and port for the computer you want to connect to? If so, does your network allow for this, meaning there's no device isolation?

I haven't tried doing this setup myself, but have wondered if it would work. I'm also curious if it would work remotely outside of the internal network.

If they are both on the same subnet, they will work. If not, I would immediately look at local firewalls on each machine, and then (very unlikely culprit) the firewall on whatever router you are using. 99% of them should not locally disrupt TCP within the subnet, but you never really know unless you go looking for it.

to help troubleshooting, dump the commands in this thread - and then post the outputs of them just so a communal set of eyes can verify you are good to go.


I use FMP(24) & DSD+ in this configuration, so I know it works.

[edit]
It does work outside of the local network, I have accessed it via my VPN - however network delays and latency due become more prevalent.

Both are on the same subnet and I have added the programs to allow them through the Windows Firewall and disabled the firewall all together on both machines.

My FMPA bat is: fmpa -o20001 -f152.780 -b9.5 -L10 -M7 -V10
My DSDPlus bat is: DSDPlus -iT192.168.1.137:20001 -fr -o2 -O NUL

Anybody?

FMPA output is:

Both are on the same subnet and I have added the programs to allow them through the Windows Firewall and disabled the firewall all together on both machines.

show us the IP addresses of both computers, plz.

Your FMPA command line arguments aren't quite correct for this application. See my example batch files and screen captures
show below.

Thanks Bill.

Looks like my FMPA.bat should have been: fmpa -oT20001 -f152.780 -b9.5 -L10 -M7 -V10

It's working now!
