the Last time I was Talking to myself . I got into such a heated argument . that is why I swore I never talk to that guy again. you know what it worked now no buddy talking to me.
Just check the p2p homepage/FAQ , many explain what ports need to be forwarded on the router to your PC.
I have a P133 with IPSec Linux firewall working as my DSL router. I forwarded the known ports for my p2p applications.
edonkey/emule:
- TCP 4662
- UDP 4672
Bittorrent:
- TCP 6881 - 6889
Those are the only ones I am using, you have to find the ports of other p2p networks yourself.
Oh yes, you certainly need a static IP on your WinXP machine. You can give it one manually or use DHCP with fixed leases that're bound to your NICs MAC address (just in case yer only do pure DHCP).
