What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Do some ssh + nc/nc6/socat voodoo
  2. Use shakespeer on a different computer than the one for which the ip is entered
  3. Test Connection

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Whether or not the port on the computer that we advertise via the ip adress is open but instead we see the status of the comuter the client is running on.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? 0.9.11, Snow leopard (10.6.4)

Please provide any additional information below. I think this problem also affects shakespeer if you use the client server feature. If I read the source correctly it is always the client that sends the request to http://shakespeer.bzero.se/checkport and thus should fail as well if it is firewalled. This should not happen since it matters if the server is open and not the client. BTW. please include the source of checkport somehwere in the download. That would make writing a patch for it easier :)
