Usually they deny all ports by default and route 80, 8080 and 443 to a proxy, which *does* understand http. It might be that websockets are too much like normal http requests that a proxy will put them through, but I'd check that before betting on websockets. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
