I'm trying to get uTorrent 2.0.4 to work in a DMZ machine, protected by a ISA Server 2006. I've opened 1 inbound port (via publishing) and opened all the higher ports for that specific machine that runs uTorrent on my DMZ, and it's working almost fine.
The problem is that I keep getting packets dropped with 0xc0040017 FWX_E_TCP_NOT_SYN_PACKET_DROPPED. Is there any way to disable this via registry? Is there any way around this?
The download speed fluctuates a lot, and when I starts hitting the upper limit that I've defined in uTorrent, the errors start poping up a lot, and the download speed goes way down, and the process repeats on and on
Tks
Edit
My outbound rules are:

  • Port Range: TCP 10000-65535 Outbound
  • Port Range: UDP 10000-65535 Send

Edit
It's probably a bug handling requests from Windows 7. When I installed the uTorrent on a XP machine, the problem went away

Did you allow both tcp and udp to pass through?

Yes, I did... All UDP is going through without a problem. TCP packets are being dropped when connection reaches to maximum I set up on uTorrent. I've edited and posted the Outbound rules. Tks – Pascal Nov 1 '10 at 13:36

Did you set up rules for both inbound and outbound direction?

Just as a future reference to possible future users, I wasn't able to actually solve the problem, but I was able to see that, if the uTorrent is installed on a XP machine, everything works fine. The problem happened only uTorrent installed and running on a Windows 7 machine
