I have all LW/Gnutella related connections forwared to my server from where I run LW and people can download normal from me (witout sending push requests and other firewall crap)
I know that but if you would of read what I had written, you could see I said PEOPLE WITH PRIVATE ADDRESSES, meaning 192.168.*.*. and 10.*.*.* addresses (not public addresses). But if you force your IP to the public address the world sees you as then of course people can download from you. I am also behind a NAT'd machine. I also redirect port 6346 to my machine and force my IP to my public address.
