Blocked UDP Ports

[Dustin Breese]

Use netcat to test udp connections on a particular port to see if they
are really blocked.  Then, as Nils suggest, try svxlink.

On one machine, type:
$ nc -u -l -p 9999

On the other, try to connect using netcat to send udp packets:
$ nc -u server.ip 9999
{now type something and see if it appears on the listener side}

Then, flipflop and try again.  This should rule out firewall and local
lan issues.

Regards,
Dustin
