Oh, no -- it is very likely that it WILL work. I am personally behind them, and everything works 100% at the Extranet. It just that it's also likely that such a firewall or proxy *does* interfer...

If you use your web browser at work, it is very likely that you are behind something called a firewall or a proxy (not the same thing, though). Most people using Internet from a school or company are behind one. These are used to act a guardian on Internet traffic to and from the company. Unfortunately, they often interfere a lot - for example, when it comes to uploading images at the Extranet. However, lots of people HAVE experienced upload problems without any firewalls or such.

To let the PEER agent run in the background without seeing the window, go to Options, then Preferences. Here you will see an option for Launch PEER window at startup. Make sure this box is unchecked and hit Save. This error most commonly occurs on machines with foreign (non-Roman character) sets, such as Chinese, Japanese, Hebrew, etc. Contact your administrator for help installing a version of the PEER that will handle your character set.

eCare uses the HTTP port (port 80) for initial communications and services between the Support Agent and the Client. The SSL port (port 443) is used for the View Remote User and Control Remote User features. Because of this, firewalls and/or proxies do not have to be reconfigured to enable online support, thus maintaining the safety of the corporate network.

Yes. You must ensure however, that port 3306 is available in order to permit connection to your remote mySQL server. Network Address Translation boxes are not a problem. Non-translating proxies might be however - contact your systems administrator if you are operating under a proxy to ensure that packets will be properly routed.

If you are running through separate proxies for each service, you shouldn't need to do anything. If you are working through sockd, you will need to "socksify" your application. Details for doing this can be found in the package itself, which is available at:

A firewall is a program that protects the resources of a private network from users from other networks. They are also often used by businesses to prevent employees from accessing certain ports or programs. Depending on the setup of the firewall, you may be prevented from accessing etree.org servers when behind a firewall. A proxy or gateway is an intermediate program that connects an internal network to the outside internet. Proxys can also be used as caching or logging servers.

A#7.5: There are two common sources of problems. The first is due to improper syntax in the inittab file. See the inittab(5) and initd(8) manual pages for the correct syntax. The second common problem is not due to the inittab file, but rather because the command you are trying to invoke is being invoked incorrectly. The way to check if this is the case is to run the command interactively and see what diagnostic messages appear.

A firewall, router, or proxy server is designed to be located between a user's machine and the internet. It will hide the IP address of the user's machine from view, thereby preventing direct access by external users or programs, some of whom may be malicious. ISMail Pro operates on a very restricted set of ports and contains a number of security safeguards. It can be exposed for access to the SMTP (port 25), POP3 (port 110), and IMAP4 (port 143) protocols.

You can use PanTilt Pro with a firewall or proxy server, as long as the ports needed to communicate to remote users are open. Make sure ports 8080 through 8888 are open to bi-directional traffic. If you also use Network Address Translation (NAT) in your network, you may still have problems getting PanTilt Pro's data to and from your computer correctly. We are currently working on a solution for this problem.

Stay Connected! have an option for a user defined port. Usually a proxy or firewall has a special port for incoming or outgoing traffic. You can set Stay Connected! to use that port.

As soon as I try to log on or change aMSN's language, it crashes with the following message: X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation), Major opcode of failed request: 45 (X_OpenFont) I try to run aMSN and it gives this error: Error in startup script: time value too large/small to represent while executing [...] procedure "ConvertLocalToUTC".

It depends. If that person has been diagnosed as an alcoholic, the answer is "no." Alcoholics who try to cut down on drinking rarely succeed. Cutting out alcohol--that is, abstaining--is usually the best course for recovery. People who are not alcohol dependent but who have experienced alcohol-related problems may be able to limit the amount they drink. If they can't stay within those limits, they need to stop drinking altogether.

When you start a session, eBLVD attempts to connect to our servers over TCP/IP. In rare instances, firewall configurations will disallow the transmission of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) packets. This will prevent any machine behind this type of firewall from viewing an eBLVD session.

Problem description: Your connection to the Internet is via a proxy server/firewall. When you attempt to connect to ATPCO, you get a "659 error" and the session does not connect. If you use option 2, your firewall administrator will need to give you the Telnet port you will need to configure HOD. You will need to email DNETTSW@atpco.net to request set-up for session profiles. Please include the following: Yes.

Though the exact process tends to vary with the sofware, there are several steps that can be done on your end to ensure that your firewall and DD/DS are smiling politely at each other.
