As far as i can see my licq is always listening inside the port range which i specified in the options dialog. This corresponds to the settings in ~/.licq/licq.conf: TCPEnabled = 1 TCPPortsLow = 30000 TCPPortsHigh = 31000 with "netstat -anp | grep licq" you can see on which ports licq is listening. It should work. Which Version of Licq are you using? Thomas
