I suspect that you need to open your router ports. Check the log in your
.giFT directory.
It's not my router, I don't have control over it. Can I determine which
ports are open on the router? Change in topic!
man nmap
In short, "nmap router-ip-address", or "nmap -P0 router-ip-address" (if ping
is filtered) will tell you what ports are open, closed or filtered...
Best regards, :-)

P. S. You may need to wait a couple of minutes for nmap to querry all ports
before you get any output...
Heh, I like the following URL, "insecure" :)
[thufir@arrakis Desktop]$

[thufir@arrakis Desktop]$ nmap 192.168.2.1

Took forever! I'm not sure how long 1527 sec is, but it's long enough that
I went mcdonalds :)
ouch, 25 min.
So, what I want to do is hook in that information with any p2p software,
such as bittorrent, yes? Of course, the ISP might be doing something,
too. Hmmm. Depending on what the ISP and network admin do, I would want
those settings dynamic, presumably.
