411 is the default hub port, and the default data port for NMDC and most other clients (the exceptioon being DC++ >= 2.0, I think). If you have SSH access to a machine with a public IP, you can create tunnels for these ports to get DC working from behind a firewall / NAT.

If I remember correctly 412 is the default hub port. And for some reason you need 411 as well. I recall that there are two ports you need to route because just routing the default hub port isn't enough. I remember trying that in windows and needed to route two ports.

Well, I happen to run a hub myself, so I guess I should know. 411 definitely is the default hub port (and the only port the hub itself needs, unless you want to do remote admin). According to the FAQ on Neo-Modus.com, it seems like DC does really use port 412 for the data connection by default (at least for the PC version, not sure if the FAQ has been updated to include the Mac client). 1412 seems to only apply to DC++. So if you're using the Mac client, you should allow connections to ports 411 and 412. I think you have to do this for both TCP and UDP.

You can circumvent most blocks by just telling DC to use a non-standard port (i.e. not 412), and connecting to servers on non-standard ports (i.e. not 411). As for Airport, just try setting your connection mode to passive. For active mode, you'd need to either create SSH tunnels to an external machine, or enable port forwarding for NAT.

I ran a hub a while ago too and I thought it was 412, but I never ran it on the standard port I ran it on port 666 so that's prolly why my memory is flakey.

If he's using the airport basestation hooked to his internet, isn't that a NAT? Or does Apple exclude port forwarding as an option? I don't know anyone with a basestation from Apple so I don't know any of the specifics.

Neither do I, but if the ABS hands out private IPs (i.e. 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x) then it is NAT. Still, that doesn't mean it supports port forwarding - no idea how configurable that thing is.
<strong>Yawn....call me when it works over Airport. This is buggy betaware.</strong><hr></blockquote>It's been working perfectly for me with airport. I'm downloading The Two Towers right now.
heh u guys are having more trouble than Windows users of DC... Isnt it great though? Its the only source for copied PSX/PS2/Xbox etc... I love this app... a new version released. version 1.0.1. I have it and it runs like a dream.

it sounds like you're a great fan of this product, so I guess it must have at least some merit. In another topic you said it wasnt really a Hotline clone but a real P2P product. However I am using right now and the only difference I see is with Hotline is that you can search across multiple hubs at the same time. However it is a major pain to find hubs that you can actually use (most disconnect you after 5 seconds b/c you're not sharing enough data and the such).
Look at what UNIX has done to us. Port forwarding? Yes I know NAT=Network Address Translation. But I have a question:
I'm at U. RI. They SEVERELY cap all P2P ports to below a k/sec. Basically it's impossible. So is their anyway around this? If I'm on an iBook connected via regular Ethernet cables (just a regular cat5) how do I go about "port forwarding"? And would I get in trouble? I certainly don't want to get in trouble with the Windoid cronies but I'm paying serious money, and part of it goes to my Internet access, damnit.
On IRC: what the hell!!! It is SOOOO hard to understand all the retarded lingo. Is there a guide about downloading on IRC?
Aqua i dunno about a guide to downloading things offa IRC but what I wanna ask is: those of you who use DC, what do you download? Me personally I download select Playstation games, and episodes of different animes. If I had more room I'd go ahead and download ( and keep in my share) a TON of Hi Quality DiVx Movies. I have several movies on DVD that I would be willing to contribute, that is if I had the space. As it stands I only have 1.66 GB free on my HD at the moment. Even if I clean off some stuff I still wont have enough for what I want. I'm dreaming on getting an external FireWire pocket drive from La Cie, or such companies. THEN I could download anything and everything and keep it in my share for others to enjoy. Just as a side note I'm also repairing my permissions. Hopefully that'll help me run smoother.
Anywho, I'm waiting to hear from you guys.
Take care,
PiBO2k2
P.S.
If you're ever on DC please feel free to PM me at ProudiBookOwner. These are the hubs I'm in the most often:
Console Paradise: console.no-ip.biz
MKBO Anime Hub #2: mkbohubtwo.dyndns.org
Anime Market: animemarket.no-ip.com
Anime Market Gold: animemarketgold.no-ip.com
Technically I shouldn't be in AMG because of my low share but... their scripts have a glitch so... heh
Also feel free to IM me at Borninbrklyn on AIM/iChat.

I hate having to connect, re-open the window, connect, re-open window, connect, etc to get any decent listing of files . . .
