Actually, while on the subject... some other points I can't find any specific clarification on, if any one can help:

If I'm running in grid mode and want to connect remote users, is it ok to refer to 127.0.0.1 as the database connection references, or should you, as I've done at the moment, redirect them to your external url? Didn't know whether they were internal references server side only or if they do get passed to remote clients (I don't have a seperate network to easily test it on, but I do know that localhost seemed to work from another machine on the same network).

I figured using the external url would work either way, albeit possibly be slower for me if I'm connecting a client from the same machine than local references.

And are there any implications for other ports I should open or route that I haven't already? (ie, beyond the 800x for the database connects and 900x for the region connects etc) I suspect blocked ports wouldn't be the reason for this issue, though, since as I say, I can usually get at least one upload per session to work just fine.
