SYMPTOMS
The DCC Send option in the IRC application does not work because some changes were added to the specification that describes how to make this option work. These changes were not added as part of the Proxy Server Setup program.



WORKAROUND
NOTE: By following the guidelines below, the users have almost unlimited access, so the administrator needs to decide if he/she wants to enable this IRC feature.

 Edit the IRC protocol definition in the WSP admin, and add port range for subsequent connection 1024-5000 for TCP inbound connections.  Add a section to the configuration file similar to the following: ["IRC application name"] RemoteBindTcpPorts=0  If the IRC application is MIRC, click Setup on the File menu, and select Local Info. In the IP Address field, type the Internet IP address of the Proxy Server.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with Microsoft Proxy Server version 1.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
