I need to open port 8069 on external IP. from router point, internal-ip and port 8069 was set (to forward to that local ip). So it should be possible to connect from external-ip:8069 to internal-ip:8069? But for some reason it is not working.

Locally I can connect with internal-ip:8069 to openerp server (through browser or gtk client).
Do I miss something? Because outside lan, it is not possible to connect to that port (while it is possible to connect to other ports (but on different internal-ips).

/etc/network/interfaces:

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.170
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.115

/etc/deny.hosts:

#there is no hosts to be denied

/etc/allow.hosts:

sshd: ALL:ALLOW

What I am missing?

    There is no specific settings to make in your openerp server computer, you just need to configure your Internet router for forwarding internal 8069 port of your 192.168.1.170 machine to the external port of your choice of the router.

    Please make a google search with “how to configure port forwarding YOURROUTERBRAND” to find some easy tutorials.

    Else go to your router config page (http://192.168.1.115) and try it on your own.
