asterisk users - Aug 2003 - Using Asterisk with FWD through NAT

Hi All,

Is there any way to connect (register, initiate and receive calls) with
Asterisk to FWD through NAT? Since I own my router port forwarding is not a
problem.

I tried with 

Register => <FWDnum>@fwd.pulver.com:<FWDpass>@fwd.pulver.com

but since Asterisk still use internal IP in some SIP fields I got "479 We
don't accept private IP contacts. Please set your external IP" message.

In second scenario I hack hosts file that fwd.pulver.com points to
fwdnat.pulver.com. In that case I was able to register but call can't be
initiated since 
Asterisk put wrong (proxy) port in To: field of SIP message.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
Borut

Did you try:

register => <FWDnum>@fwdnat.pulver.com:<FWDpass>@fwd.pulver.com
