I can ping the remote machine, and RDP into the machine and use BaseX locally there.

I connected using basexclient.bat on the remote machine. I saw no way to connect remotely using that .bat file.

Version of BaseX is 10.6

Hi Tom,

Can you ping the remote machine?

Can you connect using  basexclient.bat? 

Which version of basex?

Hello,

I am attempting to use BaseX from a central location on our network so that all team members can access it. I am using the Python Client to achieve this. Everything works fine when the host is entered as 'localhost'. Once I change it to the remote host name, I am getting a time out error reported back:

TimeoutError: [WinError 10060] A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond

On the remote machine (Windows 10 Pro for Workstations) I have opened port 1984 in the firewall on both the inbound and outbound. Can someone help me understand what I may be doing incorrectly? Or what I may have overlooked doing that is also required?

Thank you,

Tom Furst
