I have an internal network of 192.168.0.0/24 connected through the linux box
(kernel version 2.2.14-5.0) and all my internal machines get their IP from a
DHCP server running on the linux box as well. My problem is that napster
isn't as reliable as it should be through this setup. Let me explain this a
little further:
I connect to napster fine in both situations.
situation 1 (no port forwarding): I can download some files ... a lot time-out
or transfer error and no-one can download from me
situation 2 (port forwarding): I can download most files, the other files that
don't download I can live with, probably napster or the other user and
everyone can download from me
My problem is really this: in order for me to use this setup I have to specify
a different port for each machine inside that I want to run napster on ...
while this is not too time consuming or difficult imagine rebooting that
machine considering I have to add the port forward to it's IP, well with the
machine rebooted it's IP is not the same anymore so I have to remove the old
forward and add a new one, I was wondering if there isn't some way, or some
module to eliminate me from having to do this?
