Hi both,
if whoever is administering the firewall knows what they're doing
they can just let certain ports through. Our sysadmins do that
here.

Hi Nicholas,
If the server in the US is really not blocked by a firewall then you
should be able to do the following on your client machine in Germany:
- Set the environment variable EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST to include the IP
address of the server in the US
- You may also need to change some timing parameters. Read the section
called Configuration in this document:
http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/base/R3-14/8-docs/CAref.html
- Run the basic EPICS utilities from EPICS base:
cainfo ‘pvname’
getget ‘pvname’
- Launch your MCA client
As Lewis said this would be a dangerous configuration to have the server
not behind a firewall, since anyone could access it.

Subject: MCA and WAN connection
Dear EPICS support,
I'm trying to access a channel with a PV from a server (located in the
USA and me sitting in Germany) with MCA for Matlab.
For this I'm trying CH1=mcaopen('pvname') but without success.
The question for me is, if the reason for this is the firewall of the
server (but should be cutoff) or if I have to add the specific IP of the
server to any file? (library)
Probably problems in the different subnets?
What/where is the parameter which has to be changed?
Thank you for responding my question!
Nicolas
