Same here.  I have not made any special allowances in my iptables rules so that ICQ 
will work, and it does work.

Ah... now we start getting to the core of the problem.  A different
perception of "standard firewall".  I will admit you have the correct
technical definition of a firewall.  However, from your own subject line
you indicate "iptables".  With iptables it is quite common to use the
stateful connection tracking to allow response packets to existing
established connections.  Additionally, many implimentations of an
iptables based firewalls that are providing NAT'ing server are intended to
be transparent (as much as possible anyway) to the users they protect and
NAT.

With the above to conditions met, there is nothing additional that is
needed for Licq to work.  I run an iptables based firewall in several
locations based on my own firewall script.  There have been no special
allowances made for Licq (or any icq clients for that matter) and they all
happily work.

If it's sent to the list, then it's in the archives.  Then the next person
that looks for it can find it.

ok let's starts again.

Is it me or is this not straight forward?  I guess not as it's not in
the FAQ.

A standard firewall generally denies all traffic by default, right?
So in order to enable functionality, what ports and hosts does licq use?

ps thanks for forwarding the message Tim.
ps Jamin, no need to post message to list if it's only intended for

Perhaps it is seen as "unprecise" as there is no "specific" configuration
that is needed for Licq's current functionality.  If you can give a better
idea as to what you are having problems with, perhaps someone will be able
to assist you.

Hi Thomas, thanks for your email.  I don't think it's unprecise.

TCP and UDP ports that should be allowed so that licq can function
in all configurations.

Did authentication go through different servers in previous versions
of licq, im using licq 1.1.0-0.cvs20020416.1 (RPM) on Redhat 7.3
with kernel 2.4.18.

Please cc: me as i'm not on the list.

Thanks,
Darren

has been some changes in authentication lately, and am interested
