how to use rim.r

 [1/4] from: pat665::ifrance::com at: 11-Nov-2001 22:04


Hi, I read in the Rebol/Zine an article about Carl titled "A Day in the Life of REBOL" where he is enthusiastic about RIM. I have tried this program, which is provided with le rebol library. Unfortunately it's not working with me. Maybe because I'am behind a firewall ( but who's not ? ). Is there anyone here who use this rim program for real ? or is there a nice doc about it ? I'm not afraid to read. I am actually reading and reading again and again a lot of stuff about rebol: core user's guide, view user's guide, FAQ, forum, rebol/zine, many library scripts, magazines, and so on. Thanks patrick

I'am behind a firewall ( but who's not ? ). I would suggest trying GoRim2 from the Compkarori REB site of the View desktop. I believe it has http tunnelling (via Rugby) to deal with the firewall issue. Desktop->REBOL.com->Sites->Compkarori Hope this helps, Rod. Rod Gaither Oak Ridge, NC - USA [rgaither--triad--rr--com]

I think if you're behind a firewall, you can contact others who are not behind a firewall, but they can't contact you.

I don't believe there any docs apart from the source. If you are stuck behind a firewall, you can try the alternative - Gorim2 which uses http tunneling to pass thru firewalls courtesy of Rugby. sites/compkarori/gorim2 -- Graham Chiu

I use it from time to time and I am behind a firewall. RIM, being very peer to peer functioning as both client and server, you must setup your firewall to work just as you would setup any other TCP server and client. This generally means that you just need to setup your router to point port 7070 on your machine. This takes me about 30 seconds to do, from first thought through shutting down my telnet session. If you have an extreme case, such as a strict cable modem ISP, you may be able to get away with hijacking a known, or possibly unkown, allowed port. Some good ones to try are 20, 21, 22, 25, 80, 88, 110, 119, 220, 443, 666, 4000, 5010, 5190, 6699, 8875, 8888, 26000, 27001, 27010, 27015, or 27960. I would try port 80 first, port 20 second. To make this switch just find the line in the RIM source that says: my-port: "7070" And then change it to the the desired port number. I will make sure to turn on my RIM to check for you. --Ryan

Maybe I will make a how to out of what I just posted.
