DCC send ports: 51201 - 51210Does anyone have any idea why the port forwarding does not work? Some help would be appreciated.

Do you have a firewall rule to pass traffic from any source to 10.0.0.201 port 21201-21210 ?
No reason it shouldn't work, there is an extensive port forward troubleshooting doc on the wiki. It isn't usually hard to figure out.

Hi jimp
I managed to find the issue. Problem lay with the mIRC client with this feature called "Passive DCC".
It MUST be disabled in order for the NAT to work properly.Thanks for the assist and hope this thread helps others.
