Chuck:

You don't want to turn on Web Sharing if you have enabled Port 80 streaming on QTSS. Two different services can't run on the same IP address/Port number.

From a previous posting to the list from Billy Brown:

Port forwarding should also work, but you would need to forward not just 554 and 80, but also UDP ports 6970-6999 (minimally at least 6970, 6971, 6972, 6973 if you are serving content that use at most 2 tracks, Audio/Video).

Typically it is best to place a public streaming server on the Internet and assign it a dedicated static address that is public (ie. not behind a NAT firewall using 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x). Also, most firewall issues people have is when the QT Client is behind a firewall/NAT, etc. By placing your server behind a NAT, it can make things more difficult to setup and now doubly compounds the problem (ie. at times both a QT Client and your server are behind separate NATs)

If you minimally turn on port forwarding on your NAT router for port 80, and you have "Streaming Enabled on port 80", then remote QT Clients should be able to stream if they have their Streaming Transports set to use Port 80 (ie. HTTP).
