Hi,
I am behind a firewall. However, with my basic-ish knowledge I (think
I) know that two way communication is possible from behind a firewall
(messaging, file-sharing etc.). I'm not quite sure how this works
(maybe something to do with a PUSH request... like I have to initiate
the connection? Anyway... thay's not my main question.)
Is the following senario possible:
Me (behind a firewall), and another computer (not behind a firewall).
People connect to the other computer on some open port, but then that
computer sends that "information" to my computer (through an already
established connection) and then my computer acts as though the
"information" was sent directly to it (possibly requiring some sort of
software).
Essentially I think I'm asking is there any way for a computer outside
the firewall to act as a router to my computer... assuming I have
complete control over that computer and my computer, i.e. can install
any software on it, but no control over the firewall.
Also, if this is possible... is there some sort of company offering
this service?
Michal.
