    I’m a n00b in this area. Correct me if I’m wrong, but that is because clients should be able to connect to the server on a statically assigned, well-known IP address.. Correct?

    Yes, I am not ashamed to ask -__-;

    Nosayba: [Yes, I am not ashamed to ask -__-;] you will in a minute :P

    if IP address changes, it’s like you have a new home address every day. Food delivery guy would get lost :P

    Yes. Please stick to a static address. The food delivery dudes can barely find the address even when it’s static…

    MBH: LOL… Some of them started to use GPS though. For me, I usually drive and pick my food. That way I can know when the food will be here, and come hot!

    There’s a saying.. “Speak not to hungry men about servers and IPs, for they shall twist the subject to discuss food”.

    Yes Bloggy, I’m a little familiar with Miss Shell.. MBH knows how much familiar =p (I thought the best way to tease a Mac user is to throw out an SU in their way..)
