How can I connect to openfire using pidgin through a NAT?
Hi,
We use Spark at the office with an openfire server for chat communication, some of use use Pidgin cos it handles so many different services, which works great internally, but from outside it just refuses to connect. Pidgin asks me if I want to accept the certificate or not, I click accept, and then it says "disconnected, not authorised".
I have opened forts 5222, 5223, 7777, 3478 and 3479 one at a time on our firewall, no luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can telnet to 5222 and 5223 - but the output is not humanly understandable.
it's like the server doesn't trust external connections?
