Well I must be pretty lame myself. I don't know anything about
the real audio/video protocols. They're proprietary, aren't they?

Your best source of information about using unusual protocols
from behind the e-smith server is the IP Masquerade HOWTO. If you get it sorted out, please let us know.

Cheers

Brent,

Please do let us know what you discover about this.  We definitely want Real Audio to work.

Thanks,

Hello Brent,

Real audio/video should work - it is supported by the ip_masq_raudio module, which is standard with e-smith.  Real audio/video can use a variety of transport protocols, and the RealPlayer software automatically selects the best protocol. I don't know exactly what the selection criteria are, but we've found that the RealPlayer software seems to work fine behind an e-smith gateway.

What platform are you running the RealPlayer software on? What exactly goes wrong when you try to use it?

Best regards,
- Joe
