Re: DCC receive works fine but not SEND

[Tomas Edwardsson <netfilter@tommi.org>]

RECIEVE problems with DCC are usually problems at the other end.

Remote client sends: DCC SEND file.txt <size> <IP> <port> <size> 
Your client in return connects to  <IP> <port> to initiate the transfer.

I'd suggest that the client you are trying to recieve from is firewalled
in.
