Hi!

Hmm.. does "The Agent Host establishes a connection with the client" mean  
that the server at LL will start a tcp connection with the user client?

I am asking because that could cause all kinds of problems with clients  
behind NAT and Firewalls, where the internal IP of the client does not  
match the IP the connection seems to come from and where a connection to  
the external IP would require special router rules to be forwarded to the  
internal network. In addition, if you have more than 1 client behind the  
NAT/Firewall, this will fail, if  static. And if it is not static, you  
need a matchign dynamic filter for the Firewall..

All in all, I hope the servers never initiate a connection to the client!

Best regards,
  Fairlight Lake!
