From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Christopher Nielsen To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Subject: [9fans] IL and NAT Date: Fri, 17 Nov 2000 15:48:43 -0800 Topicbox-Message-UUID: 2c3456a4-eac9-11e9-9e20-41e7f4b1d025 I've been tinkering with connecting to my fileserver over IL at home via my DSL line across the Internet and through a Cisco router acting as a firewall and NAT. The router keeps responding with ICMP host unreachable, but I know I can get to the machines in question. I've opened a TAC case with Cisco to see what they had to say. Having probably never even heard of IL, the engineer has responded that he doesn't think IL is "NAT compliant". My gut response is bollocks, but is there any reason that IL wouldn't work through NAT other than Cisco hasn't written the code to handle it? -- Christopher Nielsen cnielsen@pobox.com
