well heres a interesting conundrum.

I'm setting my linux box to be a iroffer bot for a anime fansub group i work for, and sorta finalize my move to linux 90% of the time in theory ^.^. I am currently running iroffer thru my window's machine and cgywin. It works perfectly fine in the windows environment.

Now when i start it up in linux i get a couple of errors. External connections are denied on the ports i'm using (upper 6000 range). I did a verbose mode, and noticed that after each connection was denied, it'd go up to the next port, eventually out of the range the router would allow. Internally it works perfectly fine, so i assume its a nat issue, however...

I have the same ports forwarded to the computer thru my nat, as in the config. The config file is practically identical to my windows one minus the port differences. I've checked that ifconfig to see what the nat determined was my ip addy at the linux box just to check to make sure it wasn't something odd.

just for info its on a gentoo machine.
