Port forwarding in XP Pro

[Munchkin]

Hi.

Got a bit of a problem here. Installed w3s.rx as a webserver on my A4k and it works great, my pc with XP pro works as a router until I get a separate one.

Have had problems with transfering files with yahoo messenger on the pc since then, and when I checked the log for w3s on the Amiga I see that the filetransfers that's supposed to go to the pc and yahoo seems to end up on the Amiga.

Anyone has a clue as to why and if this is fixable somehow? Does yahoo messenger use port 80 for filetransfers between clients?

Not that it's a very BIG problem, there are other ways to send files, but it's a bit annoying when I don't know why this happens. Only port I'm forwarding from the pc is port 80.

I know it doesnt make sense.. but this is a line from the log of w3s

 [19/Dec/2003:15:21:43 +0100] "POST /Messenger.xxxxxxxx.1071843765489AM1.gif?AppID=Messenger&UserID=xxxxxxxx&K=lc9lmd HTTP/1.1" 501 - "your-cn2ccrvzt0" "Mozilla/4.01 [en] (Win95; I)" - ip#.ip#.ip#.ip#

x'ed out the id of the contact and my ip..

How can this reach the webserver on the Amiga when the only port I'm forwarding from XP is 80?

Revieving files with yahoo worked fine before I forwarded this port, but now it doesn't.

Of course it's obvious!

I sad that to begin with.. just that it was questioned..

Oh well, I can't see any other explanation than that it uses port 80 for the xfers, and just as I write this I just thought that I had actually never checked the settings in yahoo. I just assumed I couldn't change that. But surprise surprise, I can change it and it is port 80.

Bummer.

I guess less than 2 hours sleep per day on average for the last week and a half isn't really helping my logical surcuits work properly.  :-D
