There has been a lot of discussion about MSN messenger not working with
ISA Server 2000.

 

One way to work around it to have firewall clients installed on every
client.

 

One question to you guys. If firewall clients are installed on every
user's machine does this give them access to use the MSN messenger
services like, file transfer, video and voice?

 

Also can the users behind the firewall initiate the call or can this be
only done by the other user they are communicating with?

 

Please advise ASAP

 

Thanks in advance

Hi Mr Tom

Thank you for your reply

Ok that's true I tried with someone is directly connected to the
internet and he initiated the call, I didn't try the opposite way.

Is this the only way to have conversation on msn messenger? Or there is
a solution to let users that are behind isa to initiate the call ?

Hi Hanan,

 

Those protocol rules will not allow voice/video with Windows Messenger,
since Windows Messenger voice/video can NOT work from behind the ISA
Server, except when the external user is directly connected to the
Internet and that user initiates the call.

 

HTH,

Hi all

To enable voice,webcam,files transfer,chatting on yahoo and msn
messenger Do the followings:

I did it and its works

You should not use proxy server

If you use a proxy server to connect to the Internet, you will not be
able to use the Web cam feature. And voice

Firewall client must be installed

Change the settings in yahoo preferences to use firewall with no proxy
in client computer

 

Create protocol definitions:

 

1-yahoo chat

TCP port 5050 outbound

 

2-yahoo voice1

TCP port 5001 outbound

 

3-yahoo voice2

TCP port 5000 outbound

 

4-yahoo voice UDP

UDP port 5000 receive send

 

5-yahoo web cam

TCP port 5100 outbound

 

Create a protocol rule to allow these protocols definitions

Restart the firwall service

Restart the computer

 

It will work for both yahoo and msn messenger 

 

I hope this will help

Best regards
