A reverse connection is only going to work if the IP/PORT being
connected to is accessible from the Internet.

It can't connect to the host.  Hence the error.  We have yet developed
any technologies to bypass these sort of situations.

Ok well I will never live that last one down with the linux exploit

isnt so stupid. Ok well I was testing out some of the windows exploits 
on my internal network, against my windows computer. And I could only 
get it to work if I set up a virtual interface with a private IP for it

to connect back to. I dont know If that's  normal, but the problem I 
had was when I was trying to exploit boxes outside of my network,

whether it be a friend's box over the internet, or one of mine that I 
put outside the DMZ.  I can't get the exploit to complete, even if I am

using the win32_bind payload instead of reverse.
heres the output

msf msrpc_dcom_ms03_026(win32_reverse) > exploit [*] Starting Reverse 
Handler.
[*] Error creating socket: Connection failed: Operation now in progress

[*] Exiting Reverse Handler.

Now remember, I am launching the exploit from a computer with a private

ip address, against one with a public address. But even when I launch 
from a public ip, i get the same.....Most likely in about
5
minutes something will click in my head and it will all make 
sense....and I will make an even bigger idiot of myself. But I figured 
its worth asking for help. thanks.
