Pardon the posting in more than one subheading.

I am trying to set up my remote users such that they aren't coming into the filemaker server 5.0.3 on the default port of 5003. All I am changing is port address translation for port 5003. Setting it so that 9999=5003, both UDP and TCP. When this is done, it doesn't transmit the DB list. If feels like a UDB problem, but I have a sneaky suspicion that FM isn't able to handle this for some unknown reason.

Any thoughts, Ideas? experiences of your own?

clients coming in using both 5.5 and 5.0 on 9.1, and 10.1.1 (macs only, so far). Server is OS 9.2.2, running 5.0.3.

thanks,

st

I am using a NAT table, actually a Port Address Translation table, but similar enough for comparison. I've disabled any UDP pass through. I had previously enabled a udp port for forwarding to 5003 as well. So now all I have is forwarding for TCP on 5003. I have to wait until I'm out of the office to see if it works, I'll let ya know.
