Hi, To enable DCC through a firewall, I did the following: Configure Xchat to use 2 ports (say 1087 and 1088) for dcc. You can use more, but not less. Configure my firewall to allow 2 ports for dcc.

Hi all, Im having a few problems here atm after installing gshield. It's working fine but I seem to be unable to send/receive dcc sends using xchat on IRC. Does anyone know the fix for this? Port 6667 is open and xchat works fine connecting to servers/chatting on but no dcc transfers. Also need to know what port licq uses as it won't connect at all. Connection sharing is working fine from linux box [gateway] to the other machines on this LAN and the windows laptop also suffers from the dcc block but connects fine to ICQ. Cheers magnet
