[App_rpt-users] My dumb question of the day

So how do you connect your Allstar node to your Echolink node - when you are behind a firewall. For example. my external ip address is 24.xx.xx.xx (a public address to the internet world). my allstar server which has my echolink node on it, it on a private address of 192.168.xx.xx. There is a Nat between the 2. When I try to connect my allstar node on the same server to my echolink node, I get a connection failed because it tried to connect to the 24.xx.xx.xx address which it can't see. I'll go see if my router has the ability to spoof that address as some do. I can't believe I'm the only one that might have experienced this problem. Just curious how others have remedied it. Alan
