Joey -- This is just a wild guess, but ... might you be specifying the
remote IP address incorrectly? I can't tell from your latest presentation
of it, since you report the lines as
EXTERN_UDP_PORTS="0/0_1494 0/0_17"
EXTERN_TCP_PORTS="remote.ip.add.ress/32_1494"
But in your earlier message, you listed corresponding lines as
EXTERN_TCP_PORTS="24.167.33.0/32_1494"
EXTERN_UDP_PORTS="24.167.33.0/32_1494
Now addresses that end in .0 are *usually* network addresses, not host
addresses. So I wonder if your remote source is really something like
24.167.33.0/24 or 24.167.33.0/28 ... or *some* netmask other than 32. If
so, that might explain why 0/0 on the UDP line lets the connection work,
but remote.ip.add.ress/32 does not.
As I said, only a guess, since I am unfamiliar with the actual service.
