      Activate the port forwarding in router. For example: internal : 10.0.0.5 (port 5000) external : 200.200.200.200 (port 5000) if the port forwarding is activated, then the packet to 200.200.200.200(5000) will be forwarded to 10.0.0.5(5000). Good luck...:)

        I dont know much about Routers. I got this complaint when I tried to connect to a computer behind the router. Please tell me a little bit proceedure to do so. One more thing, If this is really needed then who other network programs like Yahoo, MSN, eMule work without configuration. Please guide me in this regard, Best Regards, rizwanSharp;

          You must check the manual of your router. The most router has a web configuration. It is easy to configure something like that. Just put your internal IP, put the port, activate and save. That's all. MSN or Yahoo work through a uPnP protocol. You don't need to activate port forwarding for that.

              That's what I tell you is a normal configuration in a simple router like DSL router. If you have a 1000 of clients, that means your network is a company network. You must do more than port forwarding. I don't have any experience like that. Probably you must change your routing configuration.

                  Proxa means : hide your IP, show the IP from proxy. That means, what you want, is against the concept from proxy.
