[Monotone-devel] Sync, write/read-permissions and port-binding in WinXP

[address@hidden 28]

I'm using Monotone v.0.36 and I'm trying to put my db to serve, so my pal can
push in his parts of code.
1.We exchanged our pubkeys and added them to our dbs, then, being on
Windows, I went to my Documents and Settings/User/Application Data/monotone
folder and created the two files:

'write-permissions' containing:
allow "address@hidden"

'read-permissions' containing:
pattern "*"
allow "address@hidden"

First question is: did I do this right? I'm not sure, because I only found
one reference about this, around the mailing list. Official tutorial assumes
we're not working on Windows.

2.Being my pal under a very strict school server (all ports closed), I try
to make his data pass through port 8080 (I'm guessing it should be the only
one open, but I might be wrong), doing:
$mtn serve -d mydatabase.mtn --bind=:8080

This way, if I'm right, I'm putting monotone listening to port 8080 on every
host it has available.
Monotone in fact asks for my password, then goes:
mtn: beginning service on <all interfaces> :8080

And my Winxp firewall tells me if I want to allow mtn network access, so I
guess I did something right.
Can anyone confirm I did both the steps right?

If so, not knowing what kind of command my pal used, I guess he did
something like this:
mtn push -d hisdatabase.mtn myIPaddress

Is this also right, or are we missing something anyay?

Thank you in advance.
