Hi,
I am new to IPmasq and Linux.
I have installed a Linux firewall program named Smoothwall (Kernel 2.2.18). I
have an internet answering machine named Callwave operating on a Windows
machine networked to the Linux machine. I can connect to the Callwave server
but cannot receive messages from Callwave. They are being denied by the
firewall. I read the IPMASQ How to and still could not get it to receive.
The technical support at Callwave gave me this information:
"Our current protocol does not lend itself well to standard firewall rules.
The client software on your desktop sends UDP packets
from a random source port >1024 to port 9283 on our server . The server
responds from port 9283 to the port >1024 that the client
originated from. If you can control access to UDP packets by source port
and grant access to those UDP packets coming from port
9283, you may find success."
What should I do to allow this through?
Thank You,
Sperry Russ
