Hello folks.

I am setting up a new web server with W Server 2003 Web Edition.

I remember a few years ago I did this and I was able to block all
ports except 80.

But I forget how to do it.

Does anyone know how to block ports?

Thanks in advance

This is something you really need to do in your firewall/router.


NO IT ISN'T

If you don't know the answer to someone's question don't respond.

Sorry, I stand by my comment. It *is* the intelligent way to protect a
server, particularly a webserver. Playing with IPSEC policies is not.

At any rate, this is a public newsgroup - caveat emptor. You're free to
disregard the replies and advice from anyone you choose, but I suggest you
learn to "play nice with the other kids" when you're asking people for free
tech support. My reply was on topic and was sincerely meant. I suggest you
start googling for help with your issue or patiently wait for someone else
to reply; I'm no longer inclined to bother.
