SID-00356: Configuring TWiki 4.3.1 w/Network Address Translation (NAT)

Status:	Unanswered	TWiki version:	4.3.1	Perl version:	5.8.9
Category:	CategoryInstallation	Server OS:	Solaris 10	Last update:	16 years ago

I'm running a TWiki site on the inside of my hardware firewall on a Solaris 10 system in my local LAN and I want users outside of the firewall over the WAN/internet to be able to register and add/modify content.

Since my hardware firewall uses Network Address Translation (NAT) to connect to the TWiki site, external users will be connecting to a different (external) IP address than the internal address the web server is configured to listen on.

Aside from configuring my hardware firewall for address/port forwarding to the internal address of my TWiki site, the only thing I could find in the TWiki configuration was the "PermittedRedirectHostUrls" definition in ./lib/LocalSite.cfg

If there is something else that needs to be changed to configure TWiki to work properly using NAT please let me know or point me to any topics which already cover this.

Thanks for your continued support!
