Upgrading didn't help, now I show a gray face with a blue question mark.  Do
I need to open 5177 both ways?

Also, if the im server is in a dmz do I put the firewall address in the nat
gateway or the ip of the im server?

I have IM working inside my company's firewall, all is working great, had a
little nating problem but worked though them.

Now, the final test:

I have installed an IM server in a dmz zone which is where it will finally
live, with the following setup:

I opened port 5177 outbound and inbound into the dmz, and I'm connecting to
the im server from inside the firewall.

The test clients all show with a gray smiley face and I can't chat.
However, the chat messages are stored on the im server and will show the
next time a test client connects.
Here's the config:

dns server inside the firewall pointing the im server in the dmz:
im.imany.com 172.16.200.7
On the im server I have the 'nat gateway host' = im.imany.com
I have made the registry changes to the clients, prior to making them I was
showing the blue questions mark.

Any thoughts?

Fred
