Gerald: Unfortunately I did NOT find 2000a specific port ranges, so I followed SyGate's technic for supporting multiple ICQ Clients. Each PC on the Protect LAN has its own range of TCP Tunnels (see SyGate's "apprule.cfg") [http://www.sygate.com/support/apprule.cfg]: PC #1: 20000 20019 PC #2: 20020 20039 PC #3: 20040 20059 . . . Then I configured the same range (specific to each PC), in its ICQ 2000a Firewall Settings! With this configuration I had multiple Protected LAN PCs accepting Chat/File Transfers from the Internet. NOT an "elegant" solution (NOTE: ICQ 2000a's standard Firewall Settings fail if both parties are behind a Firewall)!!! [NOTE: if only one party behind is behind a Firewall, then ICQ 2000a's "improved" Firewall Support will work through a GNAT Box (without any "special" configuration)!] Lawrence Houston - ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
