How can you be so sure, if it is not working for you? Actually, I don't have firewalld running on my laptop, and shorewall on my server seems to allow all communication on my local LAN. > I usually just set the network to the "trusted" zone (though I'm having > trouble getting kde-connect to actually do anything since upgrading the > phone to 0.6) I've checked again, and my phone sends one UDP packet to port 1714. This port does not seem to be open on my laptop: [tim@rose ~]$ sudo nmap -sU 127.0.0.1 shows some UDP ports open on my LAP (eg dhcp, ntp) but not this one. But I am able to telnet this port: [tim@rose ~]$ telnet 127.0.0.1 1714 Connected to 127.0.0.1. In fact I don't see any evidence that clicking on the KDE Connect icon (in System Settings) has any effect at all, eg in /var/log/messages . Is one meant to do anything apart from click on this icon (and re-start KDE Connect on the phone)? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
