Im trying to set up a web app http://sftp.thinfile.com/sftp/ to use on my windows server. The applet works great but when i connect to a server its using the clients ip instead of the server ip where they applet is running. The server has firwall permissions that some clients will not have so i need the applet to use the servers ip to initiate the connection.

Is their anyway to change the applet to use the servers ip as a source?

The applet code executes on the client side. That's why it's using the client's IP. You'll need to use the server as a proxy somehow; Either at the network layer or at the application layer through a servlet or webservice.

There may be a more simple approach that I'm missing but I'm too hot to think :p.

    • Reddit takes legal action, says Anthropic trained Claude on Reddit posts without permission

      Precisely. I didn't give Reddit permission to sell my posts to any AI vendor from any of my accounts. Since I've been on Reddit since before the current pseudo-AI existed, I don't think anyone did...

    • Google confirms more ads on your paid YouTube Premium Lite soon

      lol net-negative? They're worth $29 billion, so they aren't hurting. They're just money hungry and don't care at all about the free videos on their platform. They shouldn't be making money off of those, but they are. Those content creators that are uploading their videos they made aren't making anything, but YouTube is making tons of money off of them, along with being exorbitant. If they want to do what they did before and lock Premium videos in a paywall, then fine. But no one is going to put up with them strong-arming people into paying just to have an ad-free experience while watching super old videos uploaded by John Doe at 360p.
    • Sony unveil Marvel fighting game 'Tōkon: Fighting Souls' for PlayStation 5 and PC

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Sony unveil Marvel fighting game 'Tōkon: Fighting Souls' for PlayStation 5 and PC by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sony held a massive surprise in store for those who made to the end of its State of Play presentation today. Coming in as a collaboration between PlayStation Studios, Arc System Works, and Marvel Games, Tōkon: Fighting Souls is slated to be a tag team fighter featuring everyone's favorite heroes and villains from the Marvel comics universe. Watch the debut trailer above. Developer Arc System Works, which has previously worked on series like Guilty Gear and Blazblue, has revealed that the focus on this project was making sure it was easy to pick up and play by anyone. To put this into perspective, the studio says that while other fighting games require learning each character's moves to play them effectively, Tōkon will only have one way of playing for all available fighters. "From the beginning, we aimed to make MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls a title that could be enjoyed by a wide variety of players," explains Game Director and Lead Battle Designer, Kazuto Sekine. "We have designed the mechanics in such a way that you can perform a variety of actions with either traditional fighting game inputs or simple inputs. With the press of a few buttons, multiple characters can appear on screen to provide backup or attack together – creating a new and exciting team VS battle experience." So far, Captain America, Iron Man, Spider-Man, Doctor Doom, Storm, Ms. Marvel, Star-Lord, and Ghost Rider (Robbie Reyes) have been revealed as playable characters, neatly filling the trailer's four versus four battle. Each character has a Japanese flair to them too, such as Iron Man's unique Gundam style for his armor. As for why the studio went with the 4v4 Tag Team battle solution, the team said that the team-up nature of superheroes was the inspiration for that, making sure that players can fill the screen with all sorts of powers they are familiar with. Tōkon: Fighting Souls is coming to both PlayStation 5 consoles as well as PC sometime in 2026. More announcements with reveals for characters, stages, gameplay modes, and online mechanics will be coming up until launch as well.

      Nothing surprising there. Anyone expecting privacy on ANY social media platform is delusional at best. Let alone one controlled by the same creep that owns Tesla (a.k.a. facecrook on wheels), which blatantly violates user privacy with Tesla vehicles as reported by Louis Rossman. This action of his is just another prime example of why ANYTHING from him is trust-worthy as the same from Zuckerberg...i.e. not at all.
