Hi folks... I have never deal with IRC before. Now, I need to get a working machine for IRC client only. I am running tight ipfw rule (deny all), so, what port to open to allow IRC connection. Is IRC connection like FTP, HTTP, or neither? I setup my machine to allow all "out" connection, so connecting to port 6667 of the server seems to be not a problem, but when the server need to contact the client, it can't (of course). Now, what port do I need to open so the server can "chat" to the client easily?
