NAT is Network Address Translator

If the machine running SFS is behind a router no one will be able to reach from outside without a properly configure NAT

Ok. It's definatly not my router. I can only access a server on 127.0.0.1(local). If i try any other server it just says connecting. If I put the crossdomain file(192.168.1.105(which is the ip to access)) it doesn't work. Now. I may stioll have a probem on NAT but it should work in LANright? Also. Curiosly, if I try to use any other program other than the ADMIN swf(even the swf files that came w/ the server) they don't even connect to 127.0.0.1. Any ideas?

Well. For any of yall wanting to know how to fix such an error. It needs to be clear that in your computer's config file you change the 127.0.0.1 to your computers internal ip. If you just have 127.0.0.1 the server will not bind to the internal ip and thus be completly worthless
