Can someone technical Please help me I have the opportunity to trade while at work, but I work in a high-tech unix environment and have to get to the outside world through a firewall. I REALLY really really want to get the datek streamer to work, but alas it does not, the java applet never even gets started. I desperately want to know how I can make this work. Is there a specific port that has to be opened up on the server software for this to occur? If so, exactly how can this be done? By setting proxies in my browser prefs, or would I have to see the sys admin? If ports have to be opened, would they create any addl security breaches? Please help!! Many thanks to any responses sincerely Robert Cavaleri
