Hello, I've been trying to forward one port that bittorrent uses (6881) and I'm having some troubles. The line I have in my cisco router is

ip nat inside source static tcp 192.168.0.56(my computer's internal ip) 6881 interface FastEthernet0/0 6881

but when I run Azureus (a bittorrent client) it still does not connect and in the configuration wizard it tries to test port 6881, says there is a NAT error.

Besides NATs, do I need to permit the ports first?

Thank you.
