Thank you for your replies, they gave me the right hint. I found a little tool called "zebedee", which is able to tunnel udp connections through a proxy. I have disabled package forwarding in my servers kernel (for security reasons), but by using zebedee I can connect to pigeond.net, get the greeting banner and see myself in the Map (Unfortunetly there was no one else online, to check if I can see anybody). By the way, I use Gentoo on both, my server and my FG Box and zebedee is available via portage. Thanks again, and I hope to see you online!
