I'm not familiar with nicotine, though Debian tells me

nicotine - graphical client for the SoulSeek peer-to-peer system

Without knowing the specifics of SoulSeek, I'd use a
general-purpose tool like Ethereal or netstat to figure out
what ports they're trying to access. I don't know that I'd
have specific advice beyond that.
