I think what was happening is my firewall was blocking connections based on some info in the packets based on a definition auto downloaded.


Now there were some other issues where messages aren't going out to the rest of the nodes, and not receiving from RC/NC.

Digitalman also helped me out as well with config adjustments on my system.
