Help on ICS servers

[POWERHOUSE]

Im aware that ICS blocks ports that makes it impossible to run any type of server and that there is a program that fixes this by telling it what ports you want to use. Anyone know where to get a program that does this.

[cyberskye]

ICS uses a non-standard form of NAT to share connections. Not familiar with the configuration options (or if billy bob even gives you any), but what you want to accomplish is called port forwarding or port mapping. Search on either in the M$ helpfiles or website. They would probably prefer you buy seperate proxy software or someting but is worth a try.

Cheers

Thanks a lot Jack. I haven't tried this program yet but it looks very promising.

I was able to host a server with that program, I could even host it from inside the network. Thanks for the help!
