I dont quite understand what you are on about,
If im not mistaken this is that it is

You are trying to run a region server on you lan attached to a grid server
on the internet
when you try to connct you loose comunication between your region server and
the viewer,

if that is the case the reason is because after contact the region server or
the grid server sends the external ip address to the  viewer,
then the viewer sends the IP packets to your external IP address , this
causes them to get dropped if your router dosnt support loopback

There is no solution for this that i have been able to find,
But there is good news, I have been working on a Patch to do Nat Translation
in the Viewer (realXtend Viewer) It still needs a lot of testing
I have attached a copy of the .Diff file for revision 1073 of realXtend
viewer, The NAT extention can be found on the Network Tab of the Preferences
Set the Source IP and Port to your Externat IP and Port, and set the
Desternation IP and Port to yout Internat IP and Port , then hope it works
there is currently no documentation at this stage,

Subject: [realXtend] running rex 0.4 behind Network adress translation (NAT)



Hi all,

is anyone running a rex 0.4 on windows with NAT on a hosted server ?

- server sits with private IP´s a la 19.2168.x.y
- domain points to official IP  85.86.86.88
- the viewer accessing is on a DSL with a NAT-router, as well NOT
shareing the IP-net used for the server

Problem seems to be the avatarstorage server.  If your set
rex_authentication = False (so basicly use the rexserver only), it
works with no problem.

Very common situation for running pure opensim.


But if you set rex_authentication = True, the rexserver gets stuck
after initial account verification.


If anyone has experience with that, would be helpful.


Cheers,
Ralf
