Summary: Auto-detect WAN IP address for file transfers
Product: kopete
Version: unspecified
Platform: Debian testing
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: kopete-devel kde org
ReportedBy: bugs.kde.org alphapapa net
Version: 0.11.2 (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS: Linux
I'm behind a NAT/firewall/router that has a dynamic IP address. I've forwarded
ports to my computer, but it would be really nice if Kopete could auto-detect
the WAN IP address so I wouldn't have to enter it every time it changes.
There are several ways it could be done:
* In at least some protocols (e.g. IRC), the server can tell the client what it
thinks the client's IP address is.
* There are web sites (like whatismyip.com) that can tell you your Internet IP
address.
It doesn't seem like it should be too difficult, and it would be a big
timesaver.
