"Why gtk-gnutella thinks i'm firewalled, but i'm sure i'm not !"

Gtk-gnutella needs to receive an incoming connection to determine if you
can be reached from the outside. Until that event, you are considered
firewalled.
If you want to speed the detection up , telnet to the listening port
from the outside, and if the connection is refused or dropped , then you
_ARE_ firewalled : see "Do I need to forward a port on my firewall?".



feel free to correct/adapt of course :)
