Not much to say about ktalkd : it is a daemon. No user interface for it.
The announcement dialog box is trivial : respond or ignore.
The configuration dialog should be rather straight forward, except for setting up a forward to another user (or even to another host).
None is perfect, they all have pros (+) and cons (-).
FWA : Forward announcement only. Direct connection. Not recommended.
FWR : Forward all requests, changing info when necessary. Direct connection.
FWT : Forward all requests and take the talk. No direct connection.
In short, use FWT it you want to use it behind a firewall (and if ktalkd can access both networks), and FWR otherwise.
