I have a problem.... I am trying to stream a .wmv file
over the net and it comes back server not found. I set up
an on demand publishing point through WMS9 and it streams
fine over our in house network, but when someone external
clicks the link it says server not found. Is there
something I have set up wrong?? Thanks for any help!!

You have to allow access to that machine from the internet. This includes
opening up the ports the server and player need to exchange information.
