That's not right in all points.
If you are running ICQ on IP-address 192.168.50.97 do this:
1) firewall-settings in ICQ: port 2080 to 2099
2) ipautofw -A -r tcp 2080 2099 -h 192.168.50.97
if you are using a firewall (not only masquerading):
3) tcp-connections from the outside to 192.168.50.97 on the specified
ports must be allowed
4) udp-connections on port 4000 must be allowed
and everything works fine
