pwnat is a tool that allows any number of clients behind NATs to communicate with a server behind a separate NAT.

pwnat, pronounced "poe-nat", is a tool that allows any number of clients behind NATs to communicate with a server behind a separate NAT with no port forwarding and no DMZ setup on any routers in order to directly communicate with each other. The server does not need to know anything about the clients trying to connect.

Simply put, this is a proxy server that works behind a NAT, even when the client is behind a NAT, without any 3rd party.

pwnat will works on most *nix operating systems, and potentially Windows via cygwin. It's tested on Linux and OS X.

More info, detailed explanation and source: pwnat.
