Ok thanks i downloaded the july 18 one for dialup users ( was using the may28 one before) and all i did to get it to work was on the bottom right hand side of dns allow 0 and 1 under ip adress i set it to equal and put in my different ips on the first box on both dns's. is that all that needs to be changed and im set ? or what other things should i add like for one to get my av update to work through it .

Hey Hidden

Yes, for Dialup users using Phant0m`s-July18.rls they need to configure the DNS rules.
1 rule can be used for two DNS servers. The rule DNS-Allowed-0 is Activated while DNS-Allowed-1 isn’t, Edit DNS-Allowed-0 rule and use “Equal Or” for Destination section as it was originally. For the Destination “IP : address” first field enter in the Primary DNS server and for the Destination “IP : address” second field enter in the Secondary DNS server…

Assuming you using the Default “Remote Stealthed” mode you should be capable of updating unless the Updater Systems using FTP Protocol without using Passive Mode. And the only solutions then is doing the Updates manually or make a rule which Authorizes Remotely started Connections with Temp Range ports (which defaults purpose of using Software Firewall).

I E-mailed a lot of Updating Software Vendors getting them to use Passive Mode over FTP Protocols; you could try doing the same… ???

ok i fixed the dns 0 and ther wasnt an equal or like u said so i just set it to in range a to b and put in both of my dns . some of the programs i use to update ask for permission but nod32 doesnt ask and it just sais Server Connection failure

[hidden]

ok i correct myself i was blocking nod32 for some reason from accesing the internet but thats fixed now , so what i did is correct wit the dns , and im set ?

Hey Hidden

You don’t quite follow; I suggest re-download an unaltered copy of the Rule-set and try again from scratch… ;)

just to double check since i seem to never be completely sure when sarcasm is being used but are u serious about redownloading loll , or am i just slow!

You using Look 'n' Stop Lite or the Pro version which contains Application Filtering Layer?

What version of Look 'n' Stop you using v2.04p2?

[hidden]

version 2.04 on right hand side it sais Nov 24 2002.
i got it from http://www.looknstop.com/En/index2.htm theres a link on bottom of page to download it , so i dont know if its lite or pro

[hidden]

theres a tab inside looknstop called application filtering if thats what your reffering to

[Phant0m]

Alright that explains it... You aren't using Look 'n' Stop v2.04p2. Visit http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=7297 ;D
