: The purpose of this option is to allow the scenario where one has a 
: silcd behind a NAT, with a static external IP, to successfully join a 
: silcnet.  Previously, or at least as far as I could tell, one had to 
: have the primary listener IP match the external IP exactly, or the 
: server would not be able to join the silcnet as a client connecting out 
: to a silc router (the connection would fail with server ID is incorrect 
: (51)).
: 
This is already implemented as the public_ip.  It just wasn't documented 
but now it is.... at least in the example_silcd.conf.
