202144 2003-12-22 10:30:00 Hi, i'm attempting to run a Direct Connect hub from my gateway/server linux box. I am running Mandrake 8.1, and connect to the net thru an adsl router. Here is my current network setup:

Windows Box 1 & 2 (gateway: 192.168.0.1)-->Linux Gateway/Server ( eth1: 192.168.0.1 eth0: 192.168.1.1)-->Router(192.168.1.2)

i installed the hub software fine, have it running on port 411 and can connect to it from other computers on the LAN, i pinholed port 411 in my linux box's firewall script like so:

$IPTABLES -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 411 -j ACCEPT
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -p udp --dport 411 -j ACCEPT

and i also pinholed public port: 411, private port: 411, udp & tcp, 192.168.1.1 - on my router. The only problem is that i get the message: "Connection Refused By Target Machine" when trying to connect to the hub on port 411 from DC++ - does anyone know if i have skipped something here, or know what i can do to get this going?

Thanks in advance,
