Hello, I want to get the actual IP of a client behind NAT or a Firewall. Is there anyway to traverse NAT to get the actuall/real IP of the client to check weather its reachable directly or not. OR Is there anyother way to do that. Plz suggest
No, you can't. And even if you could it wouldn't do you any good. Think about what NAT does and you'll realise why. As for firewalls... if there was a way around it there'd be no point in having the firewall. -Stut -- http://stut.net/
