Default Re:chat server on redhat



Hi Daniel,

I am still facing a problem in getting the chat server behind my home firewall to work. Here is my setup:

At home:
My public IP is x.y.z.w (IP assigned to my router/firewall by ISP DHCP server)
IP Forwarding on my router: port 80 ==> 192.168.1.100
Home machine hosting chat server: 192.168.1.100
Chat server fcserver.xml: host=192.168.1.100, port=51127
Client stuff is residing on 192.168.1.100 (running apache)
client.xml: host=192.168.1.100, port=51127

When I launch a browser at home and point to http://192.168.1.100/index.html everything works fine and the chat client comes up and I can chat.

When I launch a browser at home and point to http://x.y.z.w/index.html the client loads but times out while trying to "connecting the server".
I get this same result from outside trying to go to http://x.y.z.w/index.html

Any clues?
