I'm so happy for you and I'm glad you remembered how I explained it.
I got tired while doing the write-up and have to catch some sleep.

Be for warned that if your IP changes you will need to re-do your second IP Address.

There are ongoing problems with border crossing in OpenSims.
Some days are better than others, so I doubt that it is something
wrong with your set up.

Do you need more information ?
and how mus he do for other regions ? he has more than one region

thank you a lot for your help :)

Assuming that the two Sims are on that same machine and use ports 9000
& 9001, your four iptables entries would be:

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING --dst 192.168.1.21 -p tcp --dport
9000:9001 -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.1.1

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING --dst 192.168.1.21 -p udp --dport
9000:9001 -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.1.1


iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING --dst alianebeverly.dyndns.org -p tcp --
dport 9000:9001 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.21

iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING --dst alianebeverly.dyndns.org -p udp --
dport 9000:9001 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.21

hello Retrodan,
i saw your new post about "having changing ip", thank you so much
for theses informations.

At the end of the "solving the loopback problem" you say i can ask
you for the most complex iptables entries, so i do :)

My friend, has a router who does not support loopback, and has
also a dynamic IP !!
He made a dyndns.org adress IP, no problem, and his router has an
option to activ DynDns in it.
Now, the problem is to have 2 differents Ip to connect himself on
his sim.
i'm not very good with my english, but i think he must do , what
you wrote in 4th choice in you "solving the loopbak problem" ? 2
groups of iptables commands? like:

iptables -t nat POSTROUTING --dst <HOST> -p <tcp|udp> --dport
<9000> -j SNAT --to-source <ROUTER>

So assuming your OpenSim Host machine has the IP 192.168.1.3 and
your router IP is 192.168.1.1 the two entries, one for tcp and one for
udp are:

iptables -t nat POSTROUTING --dst 192.168.1.21 -p tcp --dport 9000
-j SNAT --to-source 192.168.1.1
iptables -t nat POSTROUTING --dst 192.168.1.21 -p udp --dport 9000
-j SNAT --to-source 192.168.1.1

and finaly:


iptables -t nat PREROUTING --dst alianebeverly.dyndns.org -p tcp --
dport 9000 -j DNAT --to-source 192.168.1.21
iptables -t nat PREROUTING --dst alianebeverly.dyndns.org -p udp --
dport 9000 -j DNAT --to-source 192.168.1.21

please i would like you write for us the correct command in each
lines....

internal ip : 192.168.1.21
dyndns: alianebeverly.dyndns.org
router ip: 192.168.1.1
region name: BEVERLY11

do you need more information ?

and how mus he do for other regions ? he has more than one region

thank you a lot for your help :)

Sincerly

Eden

I have tried all of these options, and I still cannot get to my sims
in osgrid.
the router is not using iptables so I was unable to do that fix, but
the computer hosting the sim has the two ip adresses. and entries in
the host files of the host computer and the computer I use to access
osgrid with the client.

I have a zoom adsl x6 modem witht he ports open to the host pc, two
computers, one hosting the sim, and another running hippo open sim
viewer. I have set up a dyndns.com hostname and others are able to get
to my sims, only I cannot get to them.

any help or ideas are greatly appreciated
