aMule in Fedora 16

[Khemara Lyn]

Dear All,

I cannot use aMule on Fedora 16. When I try to connect, it just hangs 
there with the 'cancel' button. And the there is message at the status 
bar: "Warning: You have received low-ID!".

Could someone please set some light on this for me?

Thanks for any help in advance.

Regards,
Khem

Your firewall block the input (no doubt...). Deactivate it then you use amule
to get a high-id.

Thank you, sir, for your kind reply.

I tried to disable the firewall (service iptables stop) and started 
aMule again.
This time, there is no more warnings of "LOW-ID". But it still hangs 
with the "Cancel" button while trying to connect.

Any more help would be much appreciated.

Regards,
Khem

Much better to just poke some holes through the firewall, than to
completely disable it.
