Hi Ashley, On Thu, Nov 03, 2005 at 09:02:58AM -0700, Ashley M. Kirchner told us: > And I can't tell the other company to send data to separate IPs > either because their system works based on the packet they first receive > when the kiosk contacts them. Which goes back to my point above (about > putting the kiosks outside the firewall.) you say "their" system works based on the packet they first receive when contacting them. So with multiple IPs, wouldn't it work to let each kiosk contact the server via its own IP address via SNAT?? E.g. kiosk 1 which is internally 1.2.3.4 gets natted to the public ip 5.6.7.8, so when it contacts the server it will establish a connection back to 5.6.7.8 which will in turn be DNATted to 1.2.3.4. kiosk 2 (1.2.3.5) --> 5.6.7.9 and so on... I haven't read the whole thread, so it might be that I missed something :-) Wouldn't this work??
