The software I?m running is Microsoft Small Business Server 2000 with Exchange. What I need to do is initiate a TCP/IP connection to an outside server that is listening on port 3101. From my understanding I need to make sure that my firewall is configured to accommodate these types of outbound-initiated connections bi-directionally. So in a nutshell I need to open port 3101. Now I think you can do this by using a wizard in SBS 2000 called ?New IP Packet Filtering?, but I really have no clue where to go from here. Can anyone explain this to me and give me some type of detailed directions on how to go about this successfully without jeopardizing my network security? When I open this wizard there are a few different options but to me it?s all foreign. Can anyone offer some insight? Thank You!
