Hey everyone,
Thought you'd like to know about the IP_MASQ_ICQ module and its
development.
With the alternative, I have heard from several people now that
they DON'T recommend to change ICQ's timeouts to a manual setting
of 30 seconds as stated by me and the IP MASQ HOWTO. They say
that doing this reduces the "Must send via server messages".
They recommend to leave that ICQ feature un-checked and change the
IPFWADM/IPCHAINS UDP timeout to 160 seconds. I'm trying this out
as well so I'll let you know.
