Given your network architecture, I believe you are best off
transferring from Cluster01 to Cluster02 only. However, you can use
NAT by tricky use of GLOBUS_HOSTNAME and GLOBUS_TCP_PORT_RANGE, see
the two NAT sections in http://dev.globus.org/wiki/FirewallHowTo
The cluster01<->cluster02 requirement isn't so bad if they have access
to a shared filesystem with their compute nodes. Even as a client on
the compute nodes you can run a third-party transfer between the two
frontends.

Dear all,
I came across a technical issue; I think it's better to take some
advice from the community.
Imagine a network topology like the one illustrated in this pic : http://i30.tinypic.com/90vzfl.png
with a GT container running on each node.
If, for example, I want to transfer a file directly from
computenode-1 on cluster01 to computenode-9 on cluster02 how can I
do that?
Is there any service by GT to redirect the file transmission on
frontend?
Does GT support NAT, if yes how can I use that?
Or how can I put the nodes from two cluster into a same VO and use
them seamlessly?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cheers,
Shayan
