Re: BEFSR11 port triggering and FW 1.39 and 1.40.1. Thanks for the link. Very useful info. 
Yeah, it's a total bummer 2 PCs can't use the same trigger port(s) and incoming port(s) at the same time. I think a feature called 'NAT trigger tags' is required for multiple LAN PC's to use the same inbound ports simultaneously behind a NAT box.
I'll get a friend to send me a file via ICQ, then I'll try to play a game on the Zone. This should work like it has in the past. Irregardless of the outcome, I'll add to your port triggering thread. 
Thanks Bill [text was edited by author 2001-10-08 14:03:26] |

| Since you found the key, Frosty, that IRC-DCC thing I tried *should* have worked. You convinced me I probably goofed trying it. 
EDIT: And great addition to the other thread! Please add all you find. [text was edited by author 2001-10-09 00:41:02] |

I think you're on top of what I was originally looking for - where the outbound trigger's IP destination allows that IP (and only that IP) to forward back. This way, only attempting the same server would conflict. |

| reply to Bill_MI Cool. Thanks.  I know what you mean.
I remember reading about a so-called trigger tag feature. The code apparently makes a table of LAN IPs, MAC addys, and the common inbound ports. Somehow it 'tags' the outbound packet, so the return packet can be sent to the proper LAN PC.
