Hello, I have a server with WMSever behind a router with NAT and don't stream files (conection error with WMS).
MS Developers told me that:
"What we found was that for some odd reason WMS is doing a DNS query for itself whenever a client connects. For example, if WMP requests mms://www.foo.com/tv then the WMS server is doing a DNS query for www.foo.com. Now if the WMS server’s local IP is different than what’s being returned by www.foo.com then we run into the issue. You would definitely run into this problem if you're using Network Address Translation.
What I’d like for you to test is to add any possible DNS name that could be requested by a client to the WMS server's c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\HOSTS file and point it to localhost. It would be something like
127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost
127.0.0.1 wm.yourcompany.com
You'll probably notice that the hosts file does not have a file extension. Just open it in Notepad and make sure you're showing all file types. Note that all we're doing here is adding the last line with the 127.0.0.1 and your DNS name for the address where clients would typically request content."
And it works!!
See you soon.
