wcf p2p , PNRP version 2 connections questions

Hi,
I'm new to peerchannel , after try to play with the PictureViewer example I
saw that I able to share the picture with various instance of the
application in the samemachine , however , it's doesn't work when I try it
on 2 machines , both behind different NAT. , both winxp sp2 , net 3
looking in the documents I saw that the command:
int ipv6 sh teredo
return :
Teredo Parameters
---------------------------------------------
Type : client
Server Name : default
Client Refresh Interval : default
Client Port : default
State : offline
Error : client behind symmetric NAT

my questions:
1. Do I need to update to pnrp 2 ?
2. pnrp will not work behind this type of NAT ? (I mean , without manual
configuration of open ports etc)
3. when plan to develop new application , is it better already to start with
update to pnrp 2 ?
4. how can I automaticlly deploy the pnrp during install of my app ? ( I'm
using vs 2005 and I can't see the pnrp option in the "PREREQUISITE" of the
setup project , how can I do it ?)

5. in this senario of both symmetric nats - the win p2p woould able to
connect both machins via relay macine ? , is that machine will be server or
other node in the cloud ? , I have some control of who will be the relay ? ,
I have some limits when using relay for p2p app ?
.. I currently succeded to connect the same both machines using hole punching
WITHOUT relay the traffic via 3 party machine , did win p2p can't do it ? ,
what is the % of end users that can't connect direct because of
nat/firewall - do you have some document with market - real world numbers ?

thanks

Hi,
Thanks for your interest in Peerchannel and PNRP.
My comments are inline.
Please let me know if you still have some issues.

[Pritam] It is strongly recommend to use PNRP v2 (KB920342).

[Pritam]: Without knowing the exact configuration, it is very difficult to
comment on this.
Please check the IPv6 connectivity between two machines.

[Pritam] Same as number 1

[Pritam] : PNRPv2 is available at Windows update (KB920342).

[Pritam]: Can you be more specific?
