Status: Unverified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.x
SYMPTOM(s):
RMI does not work over NAT
Source ip behind nat
CAUSE:
The Source IP is sent as a datastream within the 1st communication, thereafter TCP/IP headers are disregarded and the firewall regulating the NAT prevents these packets from reaching their destination for obvious security reasons.
FIX:
Workaround:
1) Enable NAT to the source ip from the host running AdminServer (RMI)
2) Use a VPN solution to connect 'directly' to the server/s running AdminServer.
