To access a FC site via the Internet, follow these steps:

1) Make certain you are using FirstClass Client 2.6 for Windows or Macintosh.  
Only version 2.6 supports IP connections.

2) Make certain your connection to the Internet is a PPP, SLIP or better 
connection from a service provider with full-time Internet access.  "Internet 
access" offered by online services such as America Online will not work.

3) Edit a copy of your FirstClass settings file for the site you wish to 
connect to, substituting the appropriate IP address in the Server field of the 
connection setup window.  Choose TCP-IP.FCP as your connection method.

4) With the connection setup window still open, verify that the port you are
about to try contacting is the appropriate port for the site (either 3000 or 
3004).  Press the Setup button beside the Connect via popup, and check the 
"advanced settings" of your TCP connection for the port number.  Change it to 
3004 if necessary (itÍs 3000 by default). Save your changes.

5) Initiate your local Internet connection and press the Login button. You 
will be connected to the site if there are ports available.  The performance 
you experience will depend on the bandwidth of your Internet connection and 
network traffic conditions.

If you connect to multiple servers at different port numbers, consider
duplicating your TCP-IP.FCP file, renaming one TCP3000.FCP and the
other TCP3004.FCP, then when you create a settings file for a particular FC
system, choose the appropriate port FCP file. You have to set up each FCP
file once, which will store the port in the file. The settings files remember
which FCP to use for the connection, so you won't have to change this each
time you connect.
