How is NAT going to help?
Read the NAT post and you will see. The main problem being that most home NATing routers cannot NAT a packet coming from the private side with the destination of the public side ip. This causes some things to work while others do not. The post is also useful in that it hints at what the two ip addresses specified for zone are actually used for. The first is provided to the client by world as the ip the client should connect to. The second is the ip address the zoneserver uses to connect to the worldserver. This distinction is very important when setting up a server. Understanding this will help avoid certain types of common issues seen here on the forum.

Also, since there was really no detail posted, it was a SWAG.

Regards,

krich
