so the whole discussion was worth nothing
it certainly wasnt ....
at least thanks for posting back and esp after prv msg. happy to hear you sorted it. very courteous for u to reply.
Nice to know u have a working DCC.
no "any help ? " is worthless. it gives other folks something to checkout for themselves. thank YOU for having the guts to post a question.

]]>Well, i set all this auto stuff but it still doesn't work, ther even isn't a window that opens to show me that i could accept something
go to the top menu and select [Window] - [File Recieve] then you should get a dialogue box.
or
Also, [IRC] - [Auto Open Dialog Boxes]
EDIT:
maybe also [window] - [Rawlog] and check what system is saying about the DCC transfer.
Edit 2: dammit, i cant receive either now, will check all this later .... Grrrr! :shock:
Set your client to receive the transfer.
You need to be able to view the DCC window to accept it or set Auto accept in the Setup menus.
Do you get a window popup and theres a button to accept or abort.? if not go to the top menu and select [Window] - [File Recieve] then you should get a dialogue box. If you click Accept , and it still wont go, lets look at your ports control.
Let us know how it goes.

Maybe you could explain to me how this iptables stuff works, because i knever handled it.
]]>altho some IPtables have "associated" in there, they dont see Xchat dcc as associated, as its a Direct Connection. IP address to IP address.
try allocating a port for DCC in xchat and then letting the firewall / router know that its ok to use.
sometimes it seems like Witchcraft, and in Fedora ive used
service iptables stop
just to check things. usually then DCC works.
dont forget to restart the F/w tho
