ip_nat_irc

[Shaun Oliver]

hi all, I'm having some problems with dcc direct client conection.
I have a box running smoothwall and the ip_nat_irc module is loaded.
my problem is,
I'm getting conflicting reports on how I should do things.

one person's telling me to set up a forward rule, for each of my irc
clients, and another is telling me to leave well enough alone.
the thing is, I can't initiate a file transfer to anybody on one irc
network yet on the smoothwall irc network where I go to ask most of my
smoothwall questions, I have no problems initiating file transfers
there.
I need to inlist the aid of an iptables guru or someone that knows more
about nat than I do.
thanks in advance.
