Hi all,
 
I'm running a mandrake 7.0 machine for the gateway.  It has a nic connected to a cable modem for outside connection.
 
I have a win98 box for my girly, and I've got a w2k machine set up as well.
 
I've got napster installed on both the win98 machine and win2k machine.
 
On the firewall I have port 6699 and 6688 open for napster both outbound and inbound.
 
The 98 machine has no problems connecting to napster, then doing a search and actually initiating downloads off random people's machines.
 
The 2000 box however, connects to napster ok, does a search ok, but when I actually go to download an mp3, I ALWAYS get transfer errors on the win2k machine.
 
I think it must be some problem with the tcp/ip stack in w2k, but I thought you guys might be able to pinpoint
if it's some sort of firewall problem.   I don't think it is since the 98 machine isn't having this problem.
 
Thanks for any help.
(please don't flame me, I know this is probably more suited to windows newsgroup but no one has been of any
help there)  I'd rather go where the smart people are :)
 
Cheers,
 
Myrhillion
