I'm running a FMP 9 database on FMS9 on a Mac mini running Leopard. All apps involved have the most recent (including SSL) updates.

From within the local network, users can see and open the file in the Open Remote dialog by going to the local IP (10.1.10.102). That is also the IP address that shows in the FMS Console Overview.

My problem is the client now wants to access the db from outside the intranet. When I put the IP address of the machine (acquired using IP Widget) in the Open Remote dialog on a distant machine, no files are listed.

What are possible solutions?

Do you have your port forwarding on properly? Genx has a blog on port forwarding with FileMaker on his filemakerdesign.com site

Ouch. Hurt. Bad.

Ports need to be opened, particularly 5003. Also that 10.x looks like a NAT address. Is it? Or, is it a public IP address.
