[streaming] streaming through a router

[Chien-Yu Chen]

Hi!
   
  I am trying to set up a videolan server behind a router, and here is my
question

  vlc --ttl 12 -vvv --color -I telnet --rtsp-host localhost:5554
this will create a serve instance on localhost 5554 

now if I tried to connect from outside my box, ie, connect to the router
(which has port 5554 forwarded to my machine), then I get connection refused.

If I use
vlc --ttl 12 -vvv --color -I telnet --rtsp-host routerIP:5554

then when I tried to add a stream to videolan, I got

[00000253] main private error: cannot bind socket
[00000253] vod_rtsp private error: cannot create http server
+(69.213.191.216:5554)
[00000251] main vlm error: cannot find vod server

and of course I can't create a http server since I can't bind to 69.213.191.216
(the real IP)...

anyone knows a solution?  thanks
