same domain but can't see each other

[shallowz]

Issue and hoping for a straightforward detailed answer if possible, I am not a networking savvy person.

I have a pc with the ip address in one of our sites: 10.88.2.178

That pc can talk see and sync with a pc in the same range: 10.88.2.154

But when pc 10.88.2.178 does not see or sync with pc 10.88.6.144 at another site. Both are on the same domain and can ping each other.

I set the listening port to 8080 on all devices.

What settings can I change on Bittorrent Sync so that pc 10.88.2.178 can sync with pc 10.88.6.144?

please

Does multicast get forwarded?

Have you tried adding a predefined host for the connection?

[shallowz]

I do not know what multicast forwarding is, so i could make the assumption that is a no on that

 

I am guessing what you mean by "Have you tried adding a predefined host for the connection?" as going into the "Folder Preferences" and manually adding the IP address of the other pc in the "Hosts" section then yes i have added the ip address to both computers. 

[Harold Feit]

Did you include the listen port in your predefined hosts?

[shallowz]

I put 10.88.2.178:0 because i do not know the listening port

how do i find out a computers "listening port"?

[Harold Feit]

Check its preferences.

[shallowz]

check what preferences?

[Harold Feit]

The preferences of the BTSync clients.

I take it that gave the machines a sufficient kick in the butt to get the files transferring.
