I need to open a couple ports on my server for secure transactions.

How do I see what ports are open and how to open the ports needed that are not open now ?

Basically I need ports:
80
443
7143
7001

Any help would be appreciated. Win NT4.0 Service Pack 5, Proxy Server 2.0, Exchange Server 5.5.

Thanks,
Mark Jervis

go to the proxy server console
click the security button make sure that packet filtering is enabled create add a rule to allow tcp traffic on the ports you need, I think that 80 is done by default.

I emailed you a response since it was too long to list here.

But basically its packet filtering to close all ports with filter exceptions to open the ports you need opened.
