Stephen,

Thank you for the guidance!  I spent a little time this morning looking 
up IP Forwarding on the site you suggested as well as Wikipedia and a 
few others.  I'm still formulating how I handle this, but so far I'm 
assuming that handling IP Forwarding within Revolution can be achieved 
by simply using a port that is pre-registered with the Router?

If this is the case, and my program is designed to function behind most 
routers, I should probably go with a common (but appropriate) port.
