Hi Tom, I created a Protocol Rule that allows outbound access to TCP 6667, I have checked by opening all the ports(6660-6669) but still no luck. Even it is not connecting from ISA itself. I will give u the details of the IRC software. Pls. let me know if ISA supports it. http://www.mirc.co.uk <http://www.mirc.co.uk/> Pls. let me know as how can make it work. Vinay. -----Original Message----- From: Thomas W Shinder [mailto:tshinder@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 2003 6:02 AM To: [ISAserver.org Discussion List] Subject: [isalist] RE: IRC connection behind ISA http://www.ISAserver.org Hi Vinay, How did you "open a port"?

I have a secure NAT client and would like to connect to IRC server. I have already opened TCP port 6667 for both inbound and outbound but still no luck. Please advice as what other configuration is required for IRC to work behind ISA. Regards, Vinay.
