[FADCA] portmapper

[JDaughtry]

Bill
 that would be great  the only firewall i have running is zonealarm and thee
is no way to acually open a certain port  i can give the program  the ok to
be a server on my computer and /or the internet  that i have done in the
modem i have placed the bbs computer in the open zone
 that allows conects  to and from the machine all thiose i do a telnet with
that has static address's it works fine  but to the ones who dont  it don't
work right been kind of a mystery because portmapper seems to be a simple
program not much you can set up or do to it .
  Charlie K4GBB and myself have fought this for about a year  with to no
avale
 thanks John
