sounds like you got it right, 2 firewalls = no download. any chance you could open up the necessary ports? 6881-6889 i think...
Yeah, that's kinda what I figure. Can't open up the ports here at work...asked and denied. Said they'd have to call a consultant in to have it done and it would be too expensive. Oh, please - WTF do we need a consultant for to do this kinda stuff? (Oh yeah, we "downsized" and got rid of our only competent non-manager IT guy). No problem, says I, I'll do it myself, okay?. Denied again. In the meantime, we have two T1s that are utilized, oh...
maybe 10% of capacity. What a waste of good bandwidth.
