hi to all !! 

i m working on rpcap (remote packet caputure) libraray. i m having a
little silly confusion here.

in rpcap we are having a testing client (rpcap_client.c) which connects
to remote server on which we have to caputer(rapcap_svc).

now in this the remote server which is on a global ip (rpcap_svc) tries
to connect to the client which in on an internal ip to send the captured
data, but i have having confusion that how a program on global ip can
connect to the program on an internal ip. so plz let me know that if i
need to have both the programs on global ip to make this remote sniffing
possible.

so do this mean that this rpcap is designed for  pcs on global ip or pcs
in a single n/w.

plz do reply soon , i really need it urgent

bye
