asterisk users - Aug 2004 - Asterisk and Citrix

I have recently played with and did get a working copy of Asterisk functioning
in the lab environment.

Then when I moved it out of the lab and onto the outside of our firewall it
functions as before except that I get a

Connected to Asterisk CVS-08/21/04-12:16:04 currently running on 63 (pid = 1478)
??? -- Starting Skinny session from ??.???.114.131 (PIX (6.3) our firewall) 
Aug 26 14:48:34 WARNING[1209214400]: chan_skinny.c:2275 get_input: Skinny Client
sent less data than expected.
Aug 26 14:48:34 NOTICE[1209214400]: chan_skinny.c:2335 skinny_session: Skinny
Session returned: Success


Then once a connection from inside the firewall is made the Citrix Meta Frame
fails to connect to the desktop application, if I connect directly to the
Meta-frame box outside the desktop application I can connect fine, we found that
the port used on the desktop application use port 1604.  (Also sometimes
referred to as an ICA thin Client)

The Citrix Meta frame box sits on the inside of the firewall. 


So a very simple diagram would be as follows

Has anyone had this issue, or heard of this before

chan_skinny refers to support for the cisco Skinny Client Control Protocol
which is used by Cisco IP phones in a Cisco Call manager environment.  It
sounds like the PIX is forwarding stuff to port 2000 on your asterisk box.
If you are not using SCCP then you can prevent the module loading by
specifying 'noload=skinny.conf' in your asterisk modules.conf
