I have had this issue, but it was a fedora install. The software
firewall needs to have a UDP and TCP port opened, that was what fixed
mine, sounds like it could be the same there. But haven't used Kanotix
so I don't know wether a software firewall is installed and active by
default.

I've installed Azureus on Kanotix/Debian.
I have a home network connected to Net through ethernet switch and
modem/router ( Billion 7100s) with a Static IP from my ISP.
Port-forwarded port 41952, both TCP and UDP. Set Azureus to use this
port.
PC's IP is designated by DHCP and is always 192.168.1.247.
Azureus works but I only get yellow Smiley at best, but usually Blue
Smiley.
Yellow Smiley supposedly means that there is a problem with
port-forwarding, and using the Azureus "Test" confirms this, though I
believe that this is not reliable.
I have also used online port-testing sites to check port 41952 and
they always show it as blocked.
Given that these sites see my static IP, which is my modem/router, and
not my PC, and that Azureus works both Leeching and Seeding, am I
correct in believing that my setup is OK and that my downloads are
slow only because there are minimal Seeds and Peers at the time I am
downloading?
Thanks
