Hi,
It's a special configuration :
I have a web server running some servlets apps (the local server behind the
FW-1);
some of these servlets send IP address( the translated one) to the client (a
web browser on the Net);
The client need to connect to the web server (via applets);
BUT the web server needs to connect to himself for retrieving HTML files
(using external IP address NAT).
This IP addr is stored in a variable who is shared by the applet (in the
client browser) AND
the servlets (running on the web server).
SO, I need that my local web server to connect to himself using external IP
address (translated one).
Meanwhile, I have found the solution,
it's to put a manual static translation rule in FW-1 :
and now, it's work !
... perhaps , it works whith some IP spoofing ?
Thanks.
