It was an interesting part of networking at school, but hardly fun.

I see its use but fuck that it took me ages to understand how to do it and I still don't get how it works.

Computers are awesome in general, but I have yet to get to port forwarding yet. I want to though.

i5 6600k and GTX 1070 but I play 1600-900. 1440p BABY!

Still, don't put too much faith in my buying decisions. xD

It's all fun and games until you need to port forward on an ASA from the CLI :)

found it pretty easy, just opened a port at my router and configured the servers connection port, voila done. was really fun to manage the server and the community.

These days the only time I really even deal with it is when something goes wrong and I can't access my Plex server from my cabin so no, not enjoyable one bit!

* resisting the will to type "drugs are fun" *                                  *shit*

 

->Need For Forwarded Port

->hurr.durr.0/1.1/254

->login

->PortForward

->Save-Exit

 

How does one associate feelings with this type of task?

 

It's nice when you manage to do it through ssh within another ssh session on an enterprise router for the first time, you feel nice.

 

I mean if something is fun you want to continuously do it, do you port forward for no reason for 2 hours in a row for fun? If so my friend, you might just have a problem.
