Scenario: Firewall:206.*.*.194(External)/192.*.*.80(Internal) Server1:206.*.*.221(External)/192.*.*.247(Internal)(Translated through firewall)



All internal computers are hidden behind the firewall with addresses of



192.*.*.*

I can ping the Server1's internal IP from any computer, but when I ping it's external IP, I sometimes get 1 reply from Server1's internal IP of



192.*.*.247. Basically, I get no connection to Server1's external IP from any computer on the internal network. From the outside, I do have full access to Server1's external IP.

Is there anyway I can set up a route/rule/whatever to make the internal computers be able to access the Server1's external IP?



Thanks in Advance, Craig craig at qualitymetalcraft.com


Thank you for the reply, We do actually have fw1(ver 4.1). I'm afraid I do not know what NG is.

Does this mean it is still possible?

Thanks

If the natted server is on the same LAN as the internal computers then you cannot to this in NG and greater versions. You could do this in pre-NG versions of fw1 (4.1, 4.0, etc..).

No NG means Next Generation. Basically, something we'll see in the future ;-)
