MSN Messenger File Transfert With ASL ?

Simon Shaw over 22 years ago

I would get you are using NAT/Masq ?

If so, you can't get them working.
Try another instant messenger such as Eyeball Chat

According to Microsoft you need an UPnP aware firewall.

Check this out...

It would be very nice to see this in an ASL Beta.

I agree, but UPnP isn't exactly what I would call a secure thing based on it's very nature. It is kind of scary if you think about what it does.

I would like the ability to use it in Astaro (like for more protected networks), but I think other features probably should have higher priorities.

Use Eyeball Chat instead ?
It can connect to MSN as well as the Eyeball network and only uses 5 ports.
Works thru NAT & MASQ for voice & video chat
