ISA/firewall question...
|
I have a Windows 2000 Server w/ISA server on my network. From my workstation (Windows XP Pro), I'm able to connect to any MUD; however, when I try to check for updates or update my MUDlist, it says I can't connect. Could someone help me configure my ISA server to allow these packets to go out and come in? And on the client side, which proxy option would I select in preferences?
Thanks in advance for any help!  |

I think zMUD uses the same settings as Internet Explorer when checking for updates. |

Thanks Rorso...would you know the reason why I'm not able to update the MUDlists from the program?

Ok I might have told you the wrong solution :-). It seems as it zMUD does not necessarily use the same proxy settings as Internet Explorer. If you start zMUD you should be able to go to edit->settings->proxy/firewall. There you should be able to locate a "WWW Proxy Host/Port" text field. That's where you should enter the WWW proxy settings - atleast if you use a proxy. If you don't use a proxy and something is written in the host field then you should remove that text. Sorry but the menu names I wrote here might be wrong as I use a translated version of zMUD.
Good luck |

Thanks again...this may sound like a REALLY dumb question, but I am no MCSE and was wondering if ISA and proxy are 2 different things and how I can go about configuring whichever to work with zMUD.
