Linux Inlaws.
This is Linux Inlaws, a series on free and open source software, black humour, the revolution and freedom in general (this includes ideas and software) and generally having fun.
In this episode of your favourite FLOSS podcast our two OAPs discuss the challenges of running conferencing systems like BigBlueButton behind a network address translation (NAT) configuration, something that the Inlaws have been struggeling (?) with for quite some time but now have arrived a solution which might just work :-). If you face similar challenges or just want to refresh your knowledge about intricate network architectures never mind their pitfalls, stay tuned. All will be revealed (hopefully :-). But beware: This show is highly technical and geek-only. Which may come in handy if you're not technical but suffer from insomnia or similar sleep disorders - this is your show!
