After shorewall clear the problem was not solved. How can I check whether my ethernet modem is passing/forwarding the appropriate ports to your Shorewall box? Paul

I''ll bet that''s how you manage to get over 20,000 message references on Google with ''tom eastep shorewall'' ;-) Keep up the good work! BTW has it occurred to the OP (or anyone reading this thread) to read up on what ports must be opened for aMule? I found this link that states the need for a UDP port on eMule that I don''t see it mentioned on the OP? http://www.portforward.com/cportsnotes/emule/eMule.htm (I am assuming that aMule and eMule can/do use the same ports?) This looks like a job for tcpdump! Cheers DISCLAIMER: This message was sent from The-Techy.com.

Your help was already very useful, as I now know that the problem is appropriately configuring my modem. Have a nice weekend! Paul

Your help was also important to make me understanding that it was not a firewall problem. Nice weekend! Paul
