BionicPup64 8.0 - Teamviewer not accessing the internet

#1 Post by UncleScrooge »

Hello there,

I successfully installed Teamviewer (from puppy package manager). Starts nice apparently (GUI up and running and all) but for some reasons it can't get the user ID (and thus the password) from the master servers, so at the moment is useless.

It looks like something is blocking access/use of:

TCP/UDP port 5938
and
TCP port 443
and
TCP port 80

I rather have Teamviewer not using TCP 80 though, since it's very very slow and there are aslo other isues when Teamviewer is using that last resort.

the wifi router and ISP are ok since I have a parallel laptop running on Windows, connected to the same intranet (on the very same subnet actually) and has no problem with teamviewer running flawlessly.

any hint?

Note: found this old thread on teamviewer topic but doesn't help http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... =473400006

PS: firewall? if so how do I access its settings? can a domain be added to the trusted?

PPSS: I tried unistall and reinstall (Puppy package manager always), rebooting, leaving the application on for hours to see if it could gain communication, to no avail.

PPPSSS: not sure if this is the right sub.forum, but since I am indeed a beginner...

Test it with the firewall turned off. It's the red icon in the tray area.

done that, same result.

Teamviewer fields for user and pwd are frozen. the application interacts ok (I can change tabs, and clicking on the Teamviewer logo the browser pops up to their main site)

I also checked with wireshark: a lot of packets arriving on both 5938 and 443 ports from remote sources. while it seems Teamviewer is listening just to 6339.

The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.
When I was a kid I wanted to be older.... This is not what I expected :shock:
YaPI(any iso installer)

I'm trying to have Remmina working at this point.
The package manager installed it flawlessly (did I mention i'm running BionicPup64 8.0 ?), but I fear I'm missing something like enabling sharing before Remmina works (at leats that's what I had to do in my Ubuntu VB: "apt update && apt install -y vino" and then in gnome enable the sharing).
