I think PLDT DSL uses NAT. I'm on a cable network (Belltel ICable) that has a static IP and no restrictions on use, but the uptime still isn't good enough for hosting servers, and the upstream bandwidth is limited. (I get up to 100KBytes/second down on BitTorrent, but it stalls unless I cap the upstream bandwidth to 16KBytes/second). The original poster should get a dedicated server, or at least a VPS. The common PHP/MySQL type of webhost won't do for a Java webapp. -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
