I didn't say that it would not work. I said it might not work. It is certainly possible it will work. But in my experience it is more likely that it will not. This can be very frustrating when trying to test if you think that it will work, test from the internal network, find that it isn't working for you, believe that it isn't working for anyone, keep changing the configuration trying to make it work, when really it was working okay from the external network. Been there, done that, trying to save others some of that thrash.

That is quite a lot! Especially for something that isn't very useful to others. Bob
