WinMX and firewalls

[Maki]

Hi,

I'm trying to setup winMX to work with my SMC barricade firewall.

I need to open ports to allow uploading. What I need to know is what port can I trigger on. By that I mean what port does WinMX always open so that as soon as the barricade sees that open I can have it open port x and y?

I'm trying 6699 right now. (Ie if 6699 is opened on my side of the firewall the router will always open 6699 and 6257 (I think).)

But it looks like 7719 might be a better bet.

Anyone know?

Thanks!

I forwarded TCP port 6699 and that seems to work for me.

That would work except for the fact that I'm using DHCP.

I need a trigger. A port being opened on my side that the router can use as an indication it should open up the other ports.
