Question about nat
Hi, I have a question about nat functionality.
The problem is that I opened a port to access my private network. I put a
server to listen on port 10000 and then I get my public ip address (using a
service such as whatismyip.com) The problem is that when I telnet to this
public ip and port, the server in my machine doesn't get anything, but if I
try this from "outside", then the server receives the conection! How can
this be? Why putting the public ip inside my private network doesn't work?
Shouldn't this be treated as any other conection? (Of course, if I connect
to the loopback or private ip, the server receives ok)
Thanks i nadvance.
