Setting up a RAT problems

Insection · Post by **Insection** » 26 Jan 2009, 18:10

This is quite stupid... im having trouble using a RAT (remote administration tool)

Everything is set perfectly, (port forwarding, server configuration etc.)

Although the client doesn't seem to be picking up reverse connections.

After exploring my ports i think i found the cause.

As you can see- the rat runs on local ip "0.0.0.0" when its actually ment to be "192.168.0.2"

What can i do to fix this?

Thanks for reading

well, the only possibilities i could give are:

1. Firewall that you are using doesn't allow transmission
2. You have created a server with a ip 0.0.0.0 on port 12345.

1. can be cut off because i have disabled both firewall and security center

2. can be cut off because it has nothing to do with the server. Its the client that listens local ip 0.0.0.0. I need it to listen on 192.168.0.2 because port forwarding directs incomming reverse connections to that ip.

so unless the client listens on port 192.168.0.2 i wont be recieving any connections

When an application is listening on 0.0.0.0 it means that it's listening on all local addresses available.

yep, cats is right...0.0.0.0 listens on every interface/IP....local connections are 127.0.0.1....

do a port scan from the outside, best first with a direct connection, if that one works you will know it must be the router settings.
