Re: My server is using random ports(?)



That's what I thought... Thanks for confirming it!  :)

Then my next question here is: Why do these connections time out?
Here's another (recent) clip from my log:

Hi all!

Here's a part of my log:

Jan 10 07:50:09.565 +0100 [WARN] Connection to host at

Shouldn't my server try to connect to port 48099 instead? Why does it
behave like this...?



Ah. The connections labeled with unusual ports are connections that your server received _from_ those ports. Mixminion only uses 48099 for incoming connections. It's just like how your web server listens on port 80, but your web browser doesn't create streams _from_ port 80.


hth,
