Accessing another server in a private network

[helpme]

I am trying to figure out how to access a java applet that is located on a server that is in our office threw our web server. I want to build a page on our web server that can display the applet. the problem I am running into is the server with the applet has a private Ip (192.168.1.5) which is not accessable from outside the network. I know it is possible. But can it be done in PHP or does it have to be done in CGI? Can someone just give me some idea's on how to go about this?

Thanks in advance.

192.168.1.5 is an internal network ip set, if you can figure it out drop me a sticky

why not just put the applet on the webserver if you want it accessable by the world.

the applet is on a propritary server. the files are not accessible.

But the applet downloads to the client. Not sure how you could do it with PHP other then have PHP download it and then feed it to the client. At that point it would be eaiser to download the applet and put it on the webserver.

The Applet connects to 4 cameras that are connected to that server.

I have been wondering about this one too. I have been wanting to get e-mails sent from a form on an external website to go into a database on an intranet server. Beats me on how to do it, but I think I recall andreas saying something about making the internal site constantly open a port that listens for the data. I have no idea how to do that though.

Are you on unix or windows?

[daisho]

Your problem is that the applet is still running on the client machine. That applet is then connecting to the camera. If the client cannot connect to the camera then you have a problem.

By chance are these AXIS cameras?

Both servers are Unix. And the Cameras are part of a conplete system that included the server. It is called Superlive. That is the problem " the applet loads on the client's browser" . I need a way to view the applet threw the web server.

[daisho]

I've never heard of doing that. Without seeing the specifics on how the camera server works I'm not sure if I can offer anything else of value.
