Are you referring to the TIdMappedPortTCP Class? I have searched the documentation for "mapped" and this is the closest match I found.
Are there any examples available on how to use this class?
Can a socket server connect to this component and then use the other end of it as its own listening socket?
I need to have the unreachable server use the mapped port as its own listening port but located on a reachable server.
The mapped port should act as if it were the main socket on the unreachable server.
Then another computer could connect to the hidden server by using the mapped port on the reachable server.
Is this possible?
Notice that the actual server is behind a router with a non-public IP address so it needs to extend its listening port to a computer which does have a public IP...
