Only problem is that slow connections have a = problem connecting through the firewall. I believe this is due to = PCanywhere's use of UDP packets as a discovery tool. Anyone know of a = way to make IPMASQADM portfw more firendly to these UDP packets?? here = is my current implementation. # PCAnywhere (5631 & 5632) $IPCHAINS -A input -p tcp -s $REMOTENET -d $EXTNET 5631 -j ACCEPT $IPCHAINS -A input -p udp -s $REMOTENET -d $EXTNET 5632 -j ACCEPT echo -n "." #$IPMASQADM portfw -a -P tcp -L $EXTIP 5631 -R $INTIP 5631 #$IPMASQADM portfw -a -P udp -L $EXTIP 5632 -R $INTIP 5632 #echo -n "."
