I have the usual NAT/firewall setup on another box, forwarding all ports >=1024 to my gentoo box. That aspect works fine -- tested with thttpd, netcat, etc. When using btdownloadgui.py from bittorrent-theshadow, the status light in the upper right is always yellow, indicating that you're behind a firewall (i.e., there have been no incoming connections). This is confirmed by netstat -n | grep <port bt is listening on> (which has zero output). However, when using btdownloadcurses.py from bittorrent-theshadow, things work just fine; netstat -n | grep <port> shows any number connections, and the bt session is _noticably_ better. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge bittorrent-theshadow on a box behind an iptables NAT 2.forward a range of ports to the box 3.run btdownloadgui.py on a torrent, given that range of ports Actual Results: btdownloadgui.py never recognizes that it is not, for the purposes of bt, behind a firewall (but btdownloadcurses.py _does_). Expected Results: The status light in the upper right should have turned green, indicating incoming connections. emerge info: ------------ Portage 2.0.50-r6 (default-x86-2004.0, gcc-3.3.3, glibc-2.3.3_pre20040420-r0, 2.6.6) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.6 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2700+ Gentoo Base System version 1.4.15 Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r3 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvip dfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/tex mf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://cudlug.cudenver.edu/pub/mirrors/distributions/gentoo/ http://mirror.data pipe.net/gentoo http://cudlug.cudenver.edu/gentoo/ ftp://mirrors.sec.informatik.tu-darmstadt.d e/gentoo/" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow 3ds X aalib alsa apm arts avi berkdb bonobo cdr crypt cups dv dvd dvdr encode flac foomaticdb gdbm gdm gif gnome gtk gtk2 gtkhtml imlib java joystick jpeg kerberos krb4 libg++ l ibwww mad mikmod mmx mng motif mozilla mpeg ncurses nls nptl oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib p erl png python qt quicktime readline samba sasl sdl slang spell sse ssl svga tcltk tcpd tetex theora tiff truetype wxwindows x86 xface xml xml2 xmms xv zlib"
