I am guessing that it has something to do with TIMEOUT parameters.
But I have not tried to fix it. It should work if you restart the delegated
on that same port 4000  with the same command you used the first time.

Did you place the delegated commands in the Linux startup file so you
don't have to type them every time you log on? It also makes the
delegate processes start as soon as the server is turned on even if no body
logs on to your linux system.

It would also be a good idea to remove icq.mirabilis.com from your clients
icq servers setting. Because they do not have a direct connection to the
internet and the trial to connect to it will only consume time.

Cheers,
Marco Morcos
