[JDEV] Server 1.2 Setup questions

[Bob Monaghan]

Another problem occurs when running servers behind a firewall with NAT,
and/or
port-forwarding.
The DNS address of the visible IP address on the firewall isn't the ultimate
destination of the XML packets. They end up going to a system that has an
non-routable
IP address that doesn't reflect the "real" IP address. This ultimately makes
jabberd useless to me. I noticed that the ICQ transport (possibly others)
relies on this as well..

:(
