You already figured out the dcc
modprobe ip_masq_irq
does that, anyways for the ICQ I figured that one out, for the exact details
I'll have to be at home though. It's pretty simple actually, you need to
forward a small range of ports to the ICQ host, for instance 62912, 62913,
62914, 62915,62916 & 62917. Then you can setup in your ICQ that it should
ONLY use those ports. It's somewhere around the firewall settings. Then your
settled :-)

I've done this at home and at work (where my boss uses ICQ) it works like a
charms (ICQ 2000+) if there are any security related issues with this kind
of setup I'd like to hear them (apart from vulnerabilities in ICQ but those
are nice too :-))

Regards
