Firewall on the HTPC is disabled, it has never been on. Like I wrote above I have a multiseat setup at home and use this PC for lots of things, so the firewall would just be a Swiss cheese anyway. Added the FQDN HTPC-computername/IP-of-my-home-firewall to my HOSTS file (I have added it correctly, I know how to do that).I use SmoothWall as firewall, started opening individual ports but things didn’t work so I opened all tcp+udp ports from “my-workplace-ip” to “my-htpc-ip”.Starting MP on my computer at work I got the error “Unable to connect to database” got bummed about it so restarted MP. Now I get no error but when I press channels in TV the Mini EPG is empty.If i press TV Guide, I get the box telling me to specify the master tv service name or ip, I just hit change and then done and then I get a box telling me: Connected to tvserver, unable to connect to database, all ip ports seem to be fine. So what to do?Edited the HOSTS file, connected my workplace PC to my home network using VPN and things just ran MP and things are fine. Problem is that I cant be connected using VPN all the time cuz that would restrict work related stuff <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" />Is there a guide or something “how to run MediaPortal over the internet to you TVserver at home” or something like that. Yes I know about security concerns and blah blah blah.</blockquote>
