I've tried to deploy behind a nat and it seemed like magic mostly... But I did see the cycling thing in the process. In my case, it had to do with my apache config instead of WO.

<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
#    Order deny,allow
#    Deny from all
</Directory>

That eliminated my cycling problem... I'm sure it could easily be something else entirely though for you. Just thought I'd mention it though.

Hello -- I'm a bit stuck, appreciate any assistance...

I have 4 machines running various WebObjects apps, one of which runs monitor. Right now, things work fine. We are migrating to a new internet service. On the old setup, each of my machines was directly connected to the internet, and had a publicly accessible IP address. We're moving to a setup where we have a NAT'ed firewall, so each server has a 192.168.x.x address, and that address is translated by the firewall when talking to the outside world. And thats all set up properly, I can hit the servers via FTP and other services.

But when I switch the IP address on one of my machines to the internal address, I can't use monitor to startup the application. It just cycles and cycles, and never dies, and never start up. I also have successfully set up the machine with the new IP address as a host, although I had to use the external IP address since the Monitor machine is currently outside of the 192.168.x.x network (until I migrate them all).

My hunch is that monitor can't control app son this machine due to the Reverse DNS being broken -- since I'm using 192.168.x.x addresses, I can't get a reverse DNS from my ISP (I can't remember the exact message, but running the changeip command complains about no reverse DNS record being found).

Can anybody verify my hunch or not? And if you're set up in a similar manner, how'd you get around it? In running on Mac OS X Server 10.4 and 10.5.

Thanks in Advance

Chris
