No. Unfortunately, the Mediator can't be behind a firewall. It needs to be reachable by both peers in order to be able to perform a search.

What if both clients know Mediator (VPN) address. Is that possible to connect? I am thinking if client content both Mediator and client, each client post its Mediator address to friend list server. When friend of client download the list will able to know where to contact. [:happy:]
Thanks

Yes. But both peers still need to be able to reach the same mediator service in order for Search to succeed. If they aren't both able to reach mediator, then Search method will fail with an error, and it peers won't be able to connect.

Yes meaning it is possible for mediator locate behind the firewall if clients know the address (IP/PORT)?

David,
Even if you know the IP/Port, the firewall still needs to let the traffic through. In other words, he would either need to be put into DMZ, or the specific port should be open on the firewall.

David,
I can't really say. If yes, then it shouldn't be hard to understand the code.
