Hi, I have been using LICQ without problems for several years now. Yet, one contact on my list (I newly added) gets my messages I sent through server within seconds, but has to wait about 2 minutes before msgs targeted to _me_ in response are through, resulting in an open icq message window with funny moving icons..
My config: LICQ 1.2.7, masqueraded by iptables/kernel 2.4.16 via masq Hers: Mirabilis ICQ/version unknown, not masqueraded The funny thing is that she's the only one with such problems. Most of my contacts report similar sending times only for the first message in a communication, after the first one passed through, all following messages work well. I configured LICQ with the "I am behind a firewall"-option. I recently read that I should open some tcp ports/preroute some tcp ports for file transfers, but would ip tables forwarding also solve the problem described above? As a matter of fact my firewall is kinda large and if possible I'd like to keep it the size it is now and not unnecessarely blow it up. tia Nec Please CC answers to me, I am not a member of the list atm, but I'll join asap -- Supergünstige DSL-Tarife + WLAN-Router für 0,- EUR* Jetzt zu GMX wechseln und sparen http://www.gmx.net/de/go/dsl ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
