Nic, Have you tried putting angus.interphrase.nl in the 'Nat Gateway Host' field of the General tab of the Server Manager?

Having added the whole machine name does not help either. External users can start an IM, but then the system bluntly refuses to send out any additional lines. I as an internal user can type away, but the only person who sees it is me. When I start a chat with an extrenal user, nothing happens at all. We're not using IMail but the IM Database. Now that we can finally see those who have logged on, it would be grand to actually be able to hold a conversation on it. Sending files is rather bemusing as a file gets sent, but ends up floating around the WWW helplessly. In short, something is missing, and I for one cannot find it. Do I now have to open that second port on the firewall?

Internal users can see all of the external users who are logged in. External users can not see the internal users who are logged in. (Icon shows an Unknown status) External users can IM internal users Internal users can not IM external users. Internal users can IM and see status of all Internal users. Firewall is setup to allow 5177 and 5178 Both ways. anyway to debug this?
