Hi, Don!
I'm actually using two different techniques to locate servers. On 10.1.x, I use Network Location Services/SLP to search for everything that's advertised that way. This is the same API that Apple uses to find its own file servers, and I thought it was supposed to cross AirPort. Can you see your own file services on either side of the NAT route? On 10.2 and later I use Rendezvous (although the server still advertises itself with NLS/SLP so 10.1.x clients can find it), and -- frankly -- I'm not entirely sure if Rendezvous will work, though I think it will. There's no current way to give it an explicit IP address, nor is there a way to lock down the port. That said, I'm looking at adding both in a future release. For now, you could try using configuring your Airport as a bridge, rather than as a NAT router. Your regular DHCP server on the WAN side should be able to serve your Airport clients without any problem, and it'll greatly simplify your own network situation to have everything on the same subnet, with the same numbering. (This is what I do, at least!) Glad to hear you liked BRIEF: me too! <g> What do you think of netTunes so far?
