:--) Yeah something is odd there.... What I have done was to set the "Nat Gateway Host" to the public IP address of the server not it's DNS name. That and I set the registry key to 1 as mentioned in the Ipswich KB article.
IMHO they need to make the reg-key a checkbox in the client ASAP. Also document that NAT HOST can be an IP Addr. Also, Imail can support multiple domains on one server, what about the IM server? Will an update allow this?? And also is it just me or is the builtin "BIFF" broken?? ( the pop3 email checker if you don't know what BIFF means ) It's greyd out in me... even when checked. ============================================= Denny Figuerres [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Feind, Adam Sent: Monday, February 10, 2003 4:20 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [IpswitchIM_Forum] IM Problems outside of firewall Here is a strange one for IM: I am using IM internally with a private address. I have NAT running on a firewall and have an external client. The client can sign in just fine. The users in their personal contacts are grey with a question mark. The users in the groups I have created show up correctly with a smiley face if they are logged on. If I attempt to chat from the outside to a user that is configured in a public contact and shows online, they get the message but they cannot reply to me. If I close that message box and let them initiate a chat to me (I show up as online), then we can talk. Strange! I know IPSwitch is working on a fix in this direction. Please consider using me as a test site if necessary. Having it run through a firewall utilizing NAT is critical for me.
