Hi. Michael,

Yes, it works with no problem.

I believe the following two commands stop firewall.
Please let me know other things need to think about the fire-wall since I am
not good at Linux?

- "service ip6tables stop"
- "service iptables stop"

Yes, I did turn off sctp comes with linux kernel by modifying blacklist.conf
as:

/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf:
blacklist sctp

Otherwise the it complains about kernel sctp is installed when calling
sctplib.
