Hello
i have a problem in sending of file attachment I used Pidgin as for my Client…
behind a firewall i cannot able to send a file attachment but i can able to send and recieve messages for the chating only…
actually in Local network i can able to recieve and accept messages and file attachment, the only problem is that in outside.
for example: here is my setup or I established:
I established firestarter as my firewall
I have two lan card
one is for Live IP Address and the other is for my local network which is start running in 192.168.1.1
I also installed DHCP Server in same machine
I used Ubuntu to install Firestarter and DHCP Server
I set to in DHCP conf the range of the IP from 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.254
meaning to say all computers connected in my network this server will give automatically IP address.
to control Internet connection i used firestarter from there i reistricted some IP address that do not allow to have internet connection.
As i said while ago in Local network i can able to accept file attachment and messages…I noticed when i try to send file attachment in outside connection it always give me an error a "You canceled the transfer of PR50590MSDS.pdf" but i didnt do that.
I installed pidgin client in my home i connected in the same server of openfire…
Scenario1
Pidgin-Client (Home) -----------------------> (Live IP: 210.xxx.xxx.xxx)OPenfire Server(Internal (local IP-192.168.1.224)----------------------->Pidgin-Client(Work)
- File Accepted Succesfull
(This scenario 1: if the file attachment came first in outside connection i can able to recieved going to my PC with pidgin client
)
Scenario2
Pidgin-Client (Home) <----------------------- (Live IP: 210.xxx.xxx.xxx)OPenfire Server(Internal (local IP-192.168.1.224)<-----------------------Pidgin-Client(Work)
(This scenario 2: if the file attachment came first in internal connection i cannot able to recieved file attachment going to out my Pidgin(Home).
please try to analyze my setup, i think the problem is in the server of my ubuntu with firestarter… but im not sure maybe some ports that do i need to open in outside.
thanks
