My users do not have any personal firewalls but because of
the location I am in the member server I am using is
within a firewall an additional within my company's
intranet. The users would be putting the port numbers on
at the end of the web address,
(https://myfirstsite.com:8000) and this works fine for
users within the firewall. It's another group that
manages the firewall so I am not able to look at any logs
for the firewall. I have tried to avoid getting other ip
addresses because of the red tape required to get one, but
maybe that's an option I will have to explore. Thanks for
your input.
