Hi !

I got a new firewall and since them the DA version check is "unable to connect"
The new firewall is set with NAT fonctions.

Could someone tell me what port this applet is using.
I was thinking that this would use port 80 but what could be wrong with that port.
All normal other operation of my server are working normaly.

Da is working normaly behind my NAT. Only that version check dos not response.

Is there something special about this check that I should know to make it work?

Yes, it's DA's licensing check. It requires that the server's IP address be the external IP, otherwise the check will fail as your experiencing. You can not have DirectAdmin behind a NAT device which assigns the server a different IP address than the external. Port forwarding will not work.
