Hello,

First, Wonderful program and for the 1 to 2 times I have yet to need to transfer files around my network this is such a great app. thanks!

Now to the subject. Thought you should know that a port scan of 5052 when drop copy is runnong causes drop copy to 'crash' after a few seconds and has to be restarted to continue to use it. This is confirmed on the 3 machines I (now) have running it. i used the command

nmap -p 5052 localhost

as an example as well as using the actuall hostname and to another machine for a remote portscan (these are ll machines I own, inside my network)

This will lead to another problem I have but this post is more informational rather than support break/fix.

Thanks again!

Hi there,

Same problem here with the 5052 port message. 2 Mac's connected via router,

both can see each other, from one I can send - but not from the other. I tried

manually to add IP address & to make the computer names as 1 word, no success. On both machines DropCopy is added in system prefs/security/firewall to allow incoming connections.


Anyone…?
