Basically your client connects to the server and says 'hey I'm a new
client'. Then the server tries to set up the callback connection but
fails to connect to the ip/port number of the sender of the incoming
RPC2 requests.

Typically this is caused by a bad firewall setup or incorrect routing.
I don't know how your setup is, but 192.168.0.2 is an address in a
private range, so it is typically not routable across the internet.

Perhaps you have a firewall that is passing packets through, but doesn't
do any ip header rewriting (NAT/masquerading), and as a result the
server cannot send any responses back to the client, it simply doesn't
know the right address to get back to the client.
