Hi,
I've got a LAN with a iptables firewall that also runs squid as proxy. I'd like to run skype from a computer in the LAN, but I'm unable to connect and I cannot understand which ports/configuration skype requires in order to run, since the firewall is not logging anything strange. Anybody has some clue?

This is what skypes needs to 'get out'.

############skype#######
iptables -A others -p tcp --dport 44848 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A others -p udp --dport 44848 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A others -d 66.235.181.59 -j ACCEPT
