Hello all,

I have AmiTCP 4.3, PPP 1.4x, A3000 w./ WB 3.1 and AmiTALK 1.55... I used 
to be able to use this wonderful utility with AmiTCP 4.0 demo, but since 
my upgrade finger and AmiTALK are not working.
By that I mean when I finger myself I get "connection refused" and alsop 
when I send a talk request the other party receives my request, but when 
they reply my end never gets it so we are never able to connect and talk. 
Everything used to work fine... I even reinstalled AmiTALK 1.55 but that 
didn't help much either... 


More than anything I am curious to know why figner doesn't work on me! I 
use a provider with a PPP connection, dynamic, and I used ot be able to 
go "finger farshad@my_dynamically_assigned_IP and I would get a 
response... now I get nothing...

If you have ANY ideas as to why this could be, PLEASE email me! I would 
appreciate any help!
