GETTING
PALTALK TO WORK WITH YOUR FIREWALL
OR NETWORK.
Firewalls require some special
configuration to work properly with PalTalk.
PalTalk is a relatively new
program so many firewalls do not have standard
configuration available yet.
This means that you may have to manually set your
firewall up to allow PalTalk
to communicate over the internet. If you are running
a hardware router or configurable
dsl or cable modem may need to open ports
on these ports also.
Due to the vast array of products,
and combinations of products that you may
be running on your system,
we cannot give you help in this area beyond suggesting that you consult
your documentation for configuration instructions or more help. You may
also want to check the manufacturers web sites to see if they have any
updates or pre made configuration scripts for paltalk.
A word about 'Firewall
/ Network support':
(box 6 under the advanced
sound controls tab under setup)
This forces PalTalk into TCP/IP
mode for group voice and should NOT be used
unless you are using a network
or other device or software that leaves no alternative but to use it.
Using a proxy
server or NAT with PalTalk.
If you are using a Proxy server
or NAT you must configure it to be used
with PalTalk. You MAY
have audio problems if you have and external
dsl or cable modem due to
the fact that SOME of these modems contain
hardware firewalls or routers.
If you do not configure properly you may
experience reduced functionality,
including loss of audio, no video, and no
file transfer capability.
Ports
used for PalTalk:
Incoming or 'listening' ports
|
TCP |
2090 |
file transfer |
UDP |
2090 |
voice stream |
TCP |
2091 |
video listening port |
UDP |
2091 |
control stream |
TCP |
2095 |
file transfer - (older versions) |
Outbound ports |
TCP |
5001-5020 |
text messaging |
TCP |
8100-8700 |
firewall / network mode group voice |
UDP |
8100-8700 |
group voice |
UDP |
1024-2500 |
voice stream - user configurable |
UDP |
1024-2500 |
control stream - user configurable |
The last 2 UDP outbound
ports are usually set in pairs. 1024 - 1025, 1026 - 1027, etc... Most users
never have to set these lower two ports. They are dynamically assigned
if you leave the lower two boxes set to 0's on the 'paltalk port settings'
tab.
Outbound ports are usually
not an issue but are listed here for network users who
may need to manually configure
for a proxy or NAT server or other hardware device.
Using
a proxy server or NAT with PalTalk.
If you are using a Proxy server
or NAT you must configure it to be used
with PalTalk. You MAY
have audio problems if you have and external
dsl or cable modem due to
the fact that SOME of these modems contain
hardware firewalls or routers.
If you do not configure properly you may
experience reduced functionality,
including loss of audio, no video, and no
file transfer capability.
I use SyGate

I have
an external dsl or cable modem and have audio problems
I use a Linux
firewall
I
am having problems with my network in general.
SyGate:
This section assumes that
your network is installed and
running properly and that
you are familiar with SyGate.
If you need to familiarize
yourself with how SyGate works, go here...
http://www.sybergen.com/support/documents/applications.htm
You may find more help here
from practicallynetworked.com.
PalTalk uses certain ports
on your computer to stay in contact
with our servers and for
various other functions. If you are using
SyGate you must allow these
ports to communicate over the net.
To open up these ports for
communication you must edit the Apprule.cfg
file in your SyGate folder.
When you are done you must STOP, then
RESTART the SyGate
service for your changes to take effect.
This
must be done on your SERVER machine.
Open Windows Explorer
Go to the C:\Program
Files\SyberGen\SyGate directory.
RIGHT CLICK on the
Apprule.cfg file and select OPEN WITH when the menu pops
up.
Select NOTEPAD and
be sure to remove the check mark from the box that says always
use this program to open this type of file.
If you don't get an "open
with" when right clicking on the Apprule.cfg file, just RENAME
it to Apprule.txt for now. When done editing you
can just rename it back to Apprule.cfg. You will
get a warning message about changing file types but it's ok.
Just open it with notepad.
There is one trigger port
associated with PalTalk. There is also the possibility that you
may be logging directly into a message server by bypassing the PalTalk
router. As of now SyGate does not support setting a range of ports
for triggering. Therefore this script contains 20 sub-sections.
Insert this script
somewhere in between the other little scripts you see......

Q.
I use Windows Internet Connection Sharing (ICS), how do i configure it
for PalTalk?
A. This
answer comes from one of our beta testers! Thanks Sam! (aka jjonkers
on PalTalk)
ICS is a NAT based system
that first surfaced with Windows98. It requires special configuration and
is not for the weak of heart. Help and a free configuration program
is available at.... http://www.practicallynetworked.com.
Go directly to the ICS section here.
Click here
to get the ICS Configuration program.
WinProxy:
Winproxy requires special
configuration to allow PalTalk to work. Check their site here...
http://winproxy.com/
Check their Tech Support area for the most up to date information available.
All aspects of setting up your network with winproxy are available here.
Be sure you make note of the port information that you will need while
configuring winproxy. (Located at the top of this page.)
WinGate:
Check the WinGate help desk
at http://wingate.deerfield.com/helpdesk.
This should help you with many common problems that you run into.
To use WinGate
you need to map all of the ports that PalTalk uses. Check http://kb.deerfield.com/index.cfm?a=1057&k=1&CFID=167917&CFTOKEN=83328949
for information
about port mapping with your version of WinGate.
If you have a configuration
that works well and would like to contribute to this area please email
admind@paltalk.com and we will
include your information here.
Linux Firewall:
courtesy of VinnyAz (palsupport)
This script depends on kernel
2.4.x
The author of rc.firewall
is working to incorporate our changes into the next version of the script.
Compile the kernel with full
netfilter support.
Install iptables.
Copy this
script to an appropriate directory, such as /usr/local/bin, and edit
it to reflect the ip addresses of your network. Other ports can be added
to the configuration section to enable any other applications you may need
to run.
Symlink the script to an init
directory that will execute it on boot, this will vary by distribution.
I have tested this script
on Debian, and video, audio and file transfer all work behind the firewall.
Self test video doesn't work, so you will need someone else to test with.
Please do not contact Paltalk
as they are just making this available through their web site for your
convenience and have nothing to do with the script or this README. Check
Vinny's site for updates at http://www.cybertrails.com/~monte/
I would like to thank Eddie
Baker for all his work on the script to allow it to accept port ranges
and making it all work.
This script is being made
available as-is and carries no warranty.
External
modem with hardware firewall or router:
Internet service providers
usually supply external modems for connection to dsl or cable service.
SOME of these modems contain hardware firewalls or routers. If you
have no incoming, or possibly no outgoing audio, and have one of these
modems you must configure the modem to allow traffic through the
ports that PalTalk uses.
The first thing that you should
do is press the SETUP button on your PalTalk buddy list. Then select the
PALTALK PORT SETTINGS tab. On the bottom of this screen you will
see two boxes with zeros in them. Enter any two numbers that you
can configure easily through your modem. This will fix those ports
(which are usually dynamically assigned) to the numbers that you specify.
You should usually pick two numbers between the range of 1024 and 3000.
I use 1096 and 1097. Now that you have these udp ports set to fixed
numbers, you MAY be able to speak and / or hear. If not you will
have to program your modem to allow traffic on the ports that PalTalk uses
to communicate over the Internet
If you cannot program the
modem yourself you will have to get someone from your ISP to do it for
you. If they cannot or will not do this, you will have to switch
to a dialup modem to connect to PalTalk. We are sorry, but some ISP's
restrict your service by closing ports. There is nothing that we can do
for you in this situation.
Information on Cisco 675 routers
is available here.
Thanks to Pandora for this info!
