I've got a pretty basic two node mosquitto setup. One of the machines is behind a firewall not accepting incoming connections, but I can send information out. I've not implemented SSL or an ACL yet. Trying to keep this verry simple right now. Anyway, the machine behind the firewall is getting messages from some Pi's then sending it to the local broker. Another local application is connecting to that machine over websockets. I need to have these messages published to another broker outside the firewall.
I'm seeing the firewalled broker connecting to the external one, but I am unable to see any messages. Further more, I need to have the devices behind the firewall continue to receive messages from the local broker.
The following is my bridge config
connection bridge
address hostname-to-external-mqtt
topic both 0 #
bridge_attempt_unsubscribe false
local_clientid local
remote_clientid remote
start_type automatic
try_private false
cleansession true
The following is the verbose output from my the firewalled machine that needs to duplicate the messages on the remote machine
mosquitto -c ./mosquitto.conf -v

And the following is the the verbose output from the remote machine

Can anyone help point me in the right direction please?
