I'm trying to configure a firewall in OS X using Brickhouse. My problem is that if I follow the quick setup steps I end up blocking AOL from being able to sign on again. Anyone know what ports I should be leaving open for AOL to be able to make its connection.

My system:
G4 Tower 800 mhz, 384 RAM
Applications: AOL, AIM, MSN Messenger, Fire, ICQ, Irc, Mozilla, Netscape, Internet Explorer

Thanks for any assistance.

I thought there was an AOL option in BrickHouse, to allow it to connect.

Have you got the latest version?

Also, check in /var/log/system.log for any ipfw messages. They may hold more clues.
