Hello, I have been trying to get an answer to my questions regarding FMS 3 but to no avail...hopefully someone can help me here..

I have a flash file and use JW Player as my player...I can stream inside my network. I have a changing IP address so I assigned 192.xx.x.xx to my server..

I use Apache for web server. I use the code for linking to the file and works great inside my network...How can i get this to play outside my network?

here is how the player is setup:

<script type='text/javascript' src='swfobject.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>var s1 = new SWFObject('player.swf','player','500','400','9');
s1.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
s1.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
s1.addParam('flashvars','streamer=rtmp://192.xx.x.xx/vod&file=Wedding.flv&image=preview1.jpg');
s1.write('preview');
s1.addParam('salign','sr')
</script>

Any help would be great...

    Thank you Gipoh for replying...

    since my IP address does change, I use TZO for my web...Is there anyway to use a webaddress such as: www.mywebpage.com/vod as part of the rtmp?

    Hi egrogg011,
    Your local ip address is often different then the ip address to the outside world. Between the computer and the internet there could be a router or something like that. When you want that someone from the internet could connect to your server you would have to change 192.xx.x.xx to your internet ip address. Next to that you will need to configure your router to forward the ports that the media server uses because they are a lot of times closed or not redirected to the correct ip.
