iDisk & LAN problems

[Dalton29]

I've just bought myself a .Mac subscription only to find that it won't work on our office LAN. I connect to the internet and receive my email thru a proxie and after opening some ports on our firewall I was able to sync iDisk (although it doesn't seem to update the amount of disk space used within the .Mac preferences) but I cannot get iChat or Backup to work. Do I have to open yet more ports on the firewall (I cannot find which need to be opened within the Apple Knowledge Database)?

Apple don't mention any of this before you purchase iDisk!

Yeah, I bet you need another port for iChat. As to which ports, I found 5060 and 16384 through 16403 on the net, but maybe your firewall in the office is differant
