Opening tcp ports
« on: January 15, 2002, 07:04:55 AM »
I want to keep the tcp ports 6891 - 6900 open for msn file transfer and voice chat throughout my network. At the moment I can receive files but not send them.
I cannot find in the e-smith documetation how to set particularly tcp ports as open and keep them open for long periods of time. Can anyone please help with this?


Also does anyone know if the e-smith server has NAT (network address translator) and if so how to make sure it has PnP enabled?  I am looking to use webcam32 on one of the computers in the network and I dont know how to map a particular port (8888) directly to a single computer.

Thanks Alexie

I had come across that while I was searching, I just wasnt sure if that is the only way to do this or if there is something quick and simple.
