Greetings,
Do any of you have experience with getting DCC (direct client connect)
under IRC to work?
I'm using BitchX 1.1 (20040326) behind NAT firewall. I've forwarded a
range of TCP/UDP (both) ports to my machine, and set the variables in
BitchX accordingly (DCC_USE_GATEWAY_ADDR ON, DCC_FORCE_PORT 8450,
NAT_ADDRESS to my public IP).
When making DCC/CDCC/XDCC queries, I don't seem to get any response...
(I went into a couple of warez channels just to give it a try and got
banned! :)
I can do direct chat and transfer files on the same machine (an ircd
at localhost:6667) just fine. But not with anyone on the 'Net... :(
Sniffing doesn't show any traffic on the port which I specified. Only
one of the intervening routers is running Sveasoft.
(Oh sweet! I just found my router has an ip_conntrack_sip. I'll have
to try that out...)
I seriously doubt that comcast is ip_conntrack_irc'ing my traffic just
in order to filter out DCC.... Any ideas?
Dave
