[EUG-LUG:1163] ports and firewalls

[Rob Hudson]

I was just chatting on ICQ in linux and started thinking about my
firewall and how it sends messages thru the firewall without any
special NAT rules set up.

If more than one person is on ICQ behind the firewall, how does the
firewall know which message goes to who?

NAT is strange.  :)
