[GNUnet-developers] Re: using gnunet from behind NAT

[Flavio Villanustre]

Or perhaps GNUnet could use a hostname instead of an IP address so that a 
dynamic DNS could take care of an ever changing IP address in the gateway.

So an additional step could be added to the ip address resolution 
algorithm:

1. IP of the interface
2. HOSTNAME resolution
3. IP address option (if an IP address is explicitly found)
4. Host resolution of the IP address option (if a hostname is found)

This could be of use for people having dynamically assigned IP addresses 
from cable modem or DSL providers.

Thanks and regards,
