hirohitosan Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 I use my computer at the office and at home. At home the IN provider has a firewall and because of that I cannot use gaim for yahoo protocol. I downloaded yahoo messenger for Linux and at Connections preferences there is an option: Firewall with no proxies and with this option I can connect (the description is like that: "some organizations have strict firewalls but don't use proxies. The firewall with no proxies allow you to connect to our servers using only http request"). Gaim has just no proxies. Can I configure gaim to connect to yahoo using only http request?

hirohitosan Posted September 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 This is perhaps the answer to your question: http://gaim.sourceforge.net/faq.php#q67 yes that is the answer, thanx. But I still cannot connect at yahoo. It's strange because with MSN I have no problem, just yahoo protocol doesn't work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
