[brockly25]

but the other person is behind a firewall. is there something eazy that will work with a PC????? (the other person dont no jack about nat,ports,or even get in the router...)

All firewalls has a DNZ. Of cause, that doesn't help if your friend "don't know jack". If the firewall is protecting a company netowork you'r sol. I don't think the network administrator will configure the firewall so you can talk.

My best advice here would be to determine which port(s) the app uses, then have your friend open that port on his router/firewall. The manual usually gives good instructions. What app are you using, maybe I can get the info on it?

Wooch

TCP Ports 990, 999, 5678 and 5679 are used by active sync to sincronize a microsoft based machine with an hand-held pc using the active sync technology.

Important notice

always , always , be explicitly aware of local security rules,

as in "will your employer approve" you defeating their firewall...
