HI!
I've set up the port/service in NAT settings to forward an incoming request
in an special port used by an application witch i need to be accessed from
the internet, being installed on an internal workstation.
Everything is done, but it dows not open the port on the server. The
settings in NAT indicates everything is OK. Incoming and uotgoing port are
the same, the protocol is the same the application uses UDP, and the private
ip the workstation has.
Please, how do i open the port ?
The portqry keeps saying NOT LISTENENING and I'm getting mad.
How do i get it to start listening ?
Sharad told that a service must request the por to open ?
but if the software is in an internal workstation, how do i run a service on
the W2K3 server to open the port ? can you explain me a little ? i can't get
it...
thanks
