Hi Terry,

You should have the Sonicwall configured so that it doesn't
look into any H.323 packets or modify their contents.
Then, yes, NetworkInterfaces should specify the outside
address of the GK.  This is needed so that, for example,
the signaling address sent in RCF is the outside address,
and the calling phone knows to send the Setup to the firewall,
which in turn forwards it to the GK.  Since the GK did
get the originating Setup, I assume that this was working
correctly.

However, if you have a public address on the LAN
side of the firewall, it would IMO be simpler if you
eliminated the NAT, and had Sonicwall act as a normal
router for the GK host.  Assuming that this Win2k is
dedicated to gnugk, I don't think that you gain any
security by using NAT; you could still restrict incoming
connections as desired.  I'm pretty sure that your
immediate problem is NAT related and a test without NAT
would be informative.

Your trace seemed to show 63.80.96.164 as the outside
address of the GK.  I was unable to connect there, but had
assumed that it was because the firewall only accepted
connections from authorized sources, and/or because the GK
was not running at the time.  So, I did not mention it
yesterday.  However, if this is not correct, it may be a
useful clue.

Regards,

Stewart
