Connecting To Yahoo Chat Rooms Through Linux Gateway by tboy81(m): 12:57pm On Feb 28, 2006
Good day to you all:

Bumped into your site recently and i'm impressed. smiley


We have a Redhat 9 Server (proxy,firewall,DHCP e.t.c) acting as gateway for windows workstations.

The only problem is that we can't connect to yahoo chat rooms and use the webcam.The yahoo messenger one-on-one chat is however working fine.

The usual error message is : "The request for signing in took longer than expected.Please try again later"

(I enabled all the yahoo ports i saw on their site but the problem persisted.I even changed the firewall settings to allow for all connections but it still did not connect to the chat rooms.)

I have also added all the yahoo ports as Safe ports in the Squid configuration file.


Any suggestions as to any additional changes i need to make to make the yahoo messenger webcam & chatroom work?


Thanks

Yahoo clients for linux don't work with webcamz. Why, do you feel lonely at home on a tuesday night? Get a decent CLI client, it'll most likely work. Try curphoo or zinc.
