Thanks for the speedy reply, Beau. I'll give the plugin another try went I get the ported site up on a public server. – Edward, on September 10, 2009 05:09

Login to IntenseDebate account fails from WordPress in virtual machineI am porting a website to WordPress 2.8.4 and I want to try IntenseDebate. I have set up a development environment on my laptop to do the porting. I installed Linux in a virtual machine on my laptop and in the virtual machine installed a LAMP setup with WordPress 2.8.4. I successfully installed and enabled the IntenseDebate plugin (v 2.4.2). However, when I try to do the setup, the login to my IntenseDebate account fails. I'm sure the account name and password are correct. I have tried connecting to http://intensedebate.com/ from the virtual machine (using wget) and that succeeded.
I have port forwarding set up to get to port 80 on the virtual machine and everything is behind a firewall. I'm wondering if it is failing because the intensedebate server is trying to connect to my wordpress URL, i.e., initiating a connection to my wordpress development instance to push and pull from intensedebate.com. If so, this virtual machine setup won't work for syncing comments. However, if the plugin on my wordpress instance does the pushing and pulling of comments, then it seems like my setup should work.
Any ideas?
