i am in lan and i can connect to irc (port 6666-6667)but i can't download xdcc streams ,i am wondering if it's possible to bypass a firewall and download from irc channels (xdcc)??
if you have a machine running outside the firewall, you can probably create SSH tunnel to that machine, and pass xdcc traffic through the tunnel. See: http://staff.washington.edu/corey/fw/ssh-port-forwarding.html
an othoder question :if i connect trought ssl to irc server will the dcc connection pass trught ssl too?
That depends on your configuration. But SSL is capable of doing that. -- In Peace, Saqib Ali http://www.xml-dev.com/blog/ Consensus is good, but informed dictatorship is better.
