Correct (again)! I activated UPNP on my box and the error disappeared.
But, I cannot do the same on my other computer because I have no control
over the "box" and cannot forward ports!

Does this mean that I cannot use GNUnet on this computer?!

This gets me back to the question: would it be possible to provide a
public test zone for people testing GNUnet with only one computer?!
