How does Shorewall handle AOL Instant messenger? I have noticed that when my two daughters are both using AIM there is a lot of activity in the firewall log (it turns to red very quickly).
I found the following in an AIM FAQ: What can I do if I'm having trouble using Instant Messenger at work? If you're experiencing problems connecting to Instant Messenger from your office network, talk to your Network or System Administrator. Chances are you're behind a 'firewall,' and need to ask your System Administrator to open up port 5190 (this is Instant Messenger's 'default' port, which is like a secure door in your company's firewall). Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by BEA Weblogic Workshop FREE Java Enterprise J2EE developer tools!
