Adding specific mappings

Having a default mapping means that any machine on your network that connects to that port number will be put through to the machine name you specified. You may not want this. One person may want to connect to a different server on that port. You can setup specific mappings based on IPs, Users or Dialers.

Mapping by IP address

E.g. Jon who uses the machine 192.168.0.5 likes to use news.cnn.com instead of the default. Follow these steps to change his mapping.

1. Double click the Mapped link in the Config pane.

2. Click Mappings then Add. You get a new dialogue box.

3. Type in the Server to map to (news.cnn.com in our example).

4. Type the port to connect to use, this will be 119 for news.

5. Click Location and Specify 192.168.0.5.

Click Done and the Mapping will be saved.
