Hi All, This morning I downloaded licq updated rpm from the SuSE site, installed the rpm and started licq. I want to register an existing uin, so I made up a password and clicked finish. Watching the network window, I see the following: 11:29:03: [UDP] Requesting logon (#949)... 11:29:13: [WRN] Timed out after 10 seconds (#949), retry 1 of 6... 11:29:23: [WRN] Timed out after 10 seconds (#949), retry 2 of 6... 11:29:33: [WRN] Timed out after 10 seconds (#949), retry 3 of 6... 11:29:43: [WRN] Timed out after 10 seconds (#949), retry 4 of 6... 11:29:53: [WRN] Timed out after 10 seconds (#949), retry 5 of 6... 11:30:03: [WRN] Timed out after 10 seconds (#949), retry 6 of 6... 11:30:13: [WRN] Timed out (#949). I am using personal firewall on this system, is that preventing a connection? What do I need to do to get licq working? Any help is appreciated Dallam -- ----/ / ---/ / (_)__ _ _ __ __ --/ / _/ / _ \/ || |\ \/ / _/ ___/ /_/ |_\___ |/_/\_\ SuSE 7.1 Registered Linux User #213656 __________________________________________________________________ Your favorite stores, helpful shopping tools and great gift ideas.
