I am have trouble connecting to SMAUG with my firewall enabled. I have the mudd on port 4000 and in my firewall I manually put both executables in the program list and put the port as both a local and a remote and for TCP and UDP. I also moved it to the top of the list. This worked for my webserver, mail server, and ftp server. What else can I try.
Thanks
Both executables? I thought there was only one. :)
You only need to enable TCP, it doesn't use UDP.
What are the symptoms? Can't connect? Hangs after connecting? What message do you get in the log that the firewall maintains?

Unused port blocking has blocked communications. Details:
Inbound TCP connection
Remote address,local service is (XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX,icq(4000))
ICQ isn't using port 4000 and I have it in my firewall to allow port 4000.
So I', stumped.
Don' know why but its working now. All I did was rebooted my system.
