Locked NAT'd Communicator File Transfers

    Can anyone tell me if OCS 2007 resolves the issue that LCS 2005 had with Communicator clients being unable to do file transfers when the clients are on separated network segments with NAT (non-public IPs)? We have a bunch of users that travel, without VPN access, that want to be able to do file tranfers through Communicator, but in LCS 2005 this wasn't possible as they were all on different networks (e.g. WiFi hotspots) with NAT assigned private IPs. I'm curious if OCS 2007 founds a way around this issue.

      As far as I know this is not possible in OCS 2007

      Maybe the next release will fix this?

        Oddly enough, we have had this work a couple of times. We haven't tested enough NAT'd clients on disparate networks to know yet for sure though.
