Since the RAS server Internal interface IP is assigned by DHCP, and
my messaging server is that RAS server (same host). The client
cannot connect to messaging service on the RAS Server LAN interface
IP but only the Internal internface IP.

Brief Description:
Server running RAS, messaging service, DHCP
LAN IP: 192.168.15.2
RAS Internal IP: 192.168.15.166 (assigned by DHCP, different every time)
RAS Client IP: 192.168.15.x (assigned by DHCP, dfferent every time)

The problem is client is able to connect all service on 192.168.15.2
except the messaging service. He then connect the messaging app to
192.168.15.166 successfully. But this IP is ever-changing, it is not
possible to ask the client to change the messaging app setting on each
connection
