Hi Mike thanks for your reply I'm using Endian Firewall Community release 2.2.rc1
yes my users are using Skype as app To be clear skype always connects but disconnects after a random while, and goes on like that in a sort of loop, connecting and disconnecting It' so strange, before using endian I had a squid always with auth and some iptables rules, but everything worked fine, don't know why probably because tcp 443 port was not blocked??? My question is, is there a way to use skype with some defined tcp-udp port, and not using 80-443??? thanks in advance for your help. luca On Thu, Jul 3, 2008 at 3:00 AM, Mike Knisely <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > What version of Endian are you running? > > To me, it looks like the ML is suggesting having your Skype devices connect > across web ports.
