Update: ZoneAlarm and SetiQ not friendly

For the past two days, Grant's Queue traffice report has shown my Queue as not responding even though I know it has been up and running for my home fleet and my work fleet.

Can some people attempt to connect to my Q's web page and tell me what you get? Thanks...

Queue address is:

mrepko.dns2go.com:5001

Update:

The problem is definitely ZoneAlarm. When I shut down ZoneAlarm, everyone external to me can see and access my SetiQueue. However, once I bring ZoneAlarm back up, that access is denied and I get alarms in ZoneAlarm stating that access from external IPs have been rejected (thanks to Grant for confirming this).

I have configured ZoneAlarm to be locked tightly. I allow access to my server on my local LAN and I also have entries that allow access from my companies internal and external IP addresses (VPN and non-VPN connections are allowed).

I don't want to have to give explicit access to each IP address that wants to access my Q and I don't want to shut down ZoneAlarm. I have a Linksys router which is NATing external traffic for me. This provides some level of security but I like the extra layer provided by ZoneAlarm.

Does anyone out there have a similar configuration? Is anyone else using ZoneAlarm in conjunction with SetiQueue? All input would be appreciated. Thanks...
 
You shouldn't get a response from PING. I have my router dropping responses to PING requests.

I suspect there is something going on with ZoneAlarm. I have my work external IP address allowed through ZoneAlarm but other IP addresses appear to be getting blocked. Is anyone else able to access my Q?

It definitely appears to be a problem with Zone Alarm. I completely shut it down and then everyone could access the SetiQueue. When I bring it back up, I'll bet everyone will be shut out again.

Anyone else out the using SetiQueue with Zone Alarm?
 
< - Can't run ZA on my system. It's an ICS gateway and when I enable that feature in ZA it freezes the system solid when any internal client tries to pass through it. I've had other weird problems with this AMD Dualie (Tyan Tiger MP). It's great at SETI but I'm not impressed with it as my main box. I'm looking forward to going back to a Intel chipset & Intel CPU combo when the taxes are done.
 
I used to use ZoneAlarm with an older version of SetiQ. After you've made sure all the appropriate options are set (allowing servers and such), first, try setting each client to connect to the Q using its IP. I don't know why, but that helped me. All I can add beyond that is to just keep lowering the security level...

Good luck.
 
On my server, i have ZAP version 2.6.357 (the one previous to the latest, version 362) installed, with local security on Medium and Internet security on high, and it works fine with SetiQ

If you want to get ZAP 2.6.357, go here 🙂 (hosted on my cable modem, only 128kbps upload, so be patient!)

I have the same problem with EDonkey2000 and the way i solwed it was to open for edonkey in zonealarm Pro.
I still get a lot of alerts, but most of them is DNS entries, so i suspect edonkey for them since it likes to show banners 🙁

Have you tried to rightclick on setiqueue under programs in zonealarm and click "Pass Lock".
This implies that you trust setiq, but it should be a solution..
