An user connected to these machines (which have a private IP address) is trying to get connected to the a = server (Has a Private IP address) located in China via a router connected to = the Hong Kong site belonging to the same company. I can ping to the router in China, but cannot get though to the China = server (Host unreacheable). Does the router located in China need to be configured to accept this = public IP address (firewall) before I can get through to the China server? I would appreciate any help. Thanks!
