I'm not sure this is the best place to post this-I've already posted on justlinux and on the apps sourceforge forum. I've been working on this since last Thurs or Fri, so this is one of those last chance type posts. Anyway, I've been trying to get Azureus working and always get the same basic errors. [boson245@localhost azureus]$ ./azureus Starting Azureus...

I was given these commands to clear and flush iptables, but to no avail. iptables -t nat -F iptables -t filter -F iptables -t filter -P INPUT ACCEPT iptables -t filter -P OUTPUT ACCEPT iptables -t filter -P FORWARD ACCEPT I've tried linking it to jdk 1.5, jre 1.5 and jre1.4, but always get the same output. ./azureus is a script that checks for a valid java install and then calls a jar file. I've let it find java on its own (jre1.4 rpm), and explicitly told it where to find java's bin folder. It never exits saying that java is broken, so I'm having trouble isolating the issue. Whats more, I did a fresh install of FC3 over the weekend and had it working...twice! Then I updated and whatnot, and now I'm back where I started. I can also get the program to run on two windows boxes on the network. So I'm wondering if there's a module or service that is enabled/disabled that would cause this?
