Mac OS X 10.4.11 Firewall Settings?
Hello,
I've got another question - for those using Mac OS X 10.4.11 and iChat 3.1.9. Are there any special settings that need to be configured in Sharing >> Firewall preferences when using iChat? I video chat with my Mom quite often and she uses an iMac G5/2GHz running Mac OS X 10.4.11 and we have her firewall turned on in Sharing >> Firewall preferences but nothing at all is checked in the Firewall preferences and nothing has been specially configured. Her connection seems to work just fine as-is but I figured I'd better check just in case since I will be seeing her tomorrow and am going to do some updating and backing up on her computer.
Seems to me that the built-in Mac OS X 10.4.11 Firewall is pretty much self-configured for using iChat already. I'm just not sure if I have to add any "New" or "Advanced" settings in order for her iChat to work optimally.
Thanks so much,
Gerard
