I'm a little delayed getting back to this, but I seem to have encountered a
slight problem.  Using Masquerading to provide internet access to a win98
computer with icq on it, port 4000 does not work.  I turned off demasq in my
diald.conf so I could take a look at the port, but it changes from
connection to connection.  It does always, as far as I can tell, end up in
the 61000's.  Those are the masq ports, so it should make sense.  In my
/etc/services, is there a way to single-out icq some other way than just a
port number.  Or perhaps i can be more specific in defining the port to make
is know the port is masqed?

Thanks,
Jacob Joseph
