They do database reads mostly.  The firewall is set up to allow incoming and 
outgoing connections on the ports I need.  For instance "r: open 
tcp://ip-address:8001" works.  But if I do this:

server: context get-rugby-service tcp://ip-address:8001

and then try something like t: server/probe-messages userid, then i get an 
error on the client machine (outside of the firewall) that says that it 
cannot connect to 10.10.1.14 which is the internal IP address of the server. 
  But it shouldn't be trying to connect to that IP address at all, it should 
be trying to connect to port 8000 on the firewall's external IP which then 
routs it internally to the server.

I'm not super knowledgable when it comes to networks, but I'm not seeing why 
it should be trying to access that internal IP in the first place.

Thanks for any help,
Matt


------------------------------------
Matt,

What do your server functions do? It sounds like your firewall prevents
accessing the business logic here, i.e. this is a network problem.

You can have a Rugby server running on one ip address when it's a dual
network-card server, that's what most people would do. Then allow
incoming calls only on one card, and sandwich the box between two
routers and two firewalls. If you get the router and firewall configs
right there should be no problem.
