Extra listening IP adres on ascom remote #34

Closed calberts closed 2 years ago

Hoi

I have a question although I think it's not a bug but Request for enhancement

I use Alpaca for my remote observatory, I love it. I use it to open my roof and query my PC for the status of the telescope with ascom remote. That all is on the local network with the observatory. To control and access the observatory I make use of zero-tier (https://www.zerotier.com/). Which introduced an overlay network with another network IP space. ALPACA Remote Servers is only able to listen on one network one 1 address, My enhancement question is to add an extra one listing IP address in Ascom remote for the zerotier network.

This has added value for all remote observatory's The reason for me is that I like to use the sky safari from my Mac / iPad at home which has full alpaca support presently added

In this way, we control equipment at home but still also local in the observatory

Looking forward to this enhancement.

With regards

Chris Alberts

Hi Chris,

The latest ASCOM remote release here has an "All IP Addresses" option, does this address your need?

Best wishes, Peter
