As for the problem on Linux, you need to give more info regarding audio p=
ort
on UDP being above 2000. What does it mean by that ? Are you sure it is 2=
000
and not 1024 as you cannot assign ports below 1024 without being a superu=
ser.
Also what are the settings for it in /etc/services and make sure that the=

ports are not blocked in Linux.
