I wanted to do this recently and mailed Alison with the question....
here's her reply.
Her faq has links to a site that have set it up to host thru a Linux
proxy/firewall. I use an NT firewall. The problem with GPL is that it
assigns the first free port that's available on the host and client and that
happens for each client that joins so its difficult to set the firewall up
without defeating the whole object of the firewall in the first place. I
didn't manage to get it to work - I have to say I didn't try that hard -
just bought another isdn card for the pc I use to play GPL :)
hope that helps.

This is an issue that is supposed to be addressed in the 1.1 patch that
Randy Cassidy keeps telling us about.
