Re: [Fwbuilder-discussion] MSN access

[Joe G. <jg...@jo...>]

Hey there,

Yeah, its only for the Messanger. I found this on the internet about the
ports and made a rule group for these and allowd them INBOUND and still no
go. Would I have to specify them some where else also?

Thanks

Here are the ports that need to be open...

MSN Messenger
(Watch Out! Opens a wide port range!)

Ports 6891-6900 enable File send,
Port 6901 is for voice communications
Allows Voice, PC to Phone, Messages, and Full File transfer capabilities.
Thnx to Brad King & Bill Finch Jr.
IN         TCP     6891 - 6900
IN         TCP     1863
IN         UDP    1863
IN         UDP    5190
IN         UDP    6901
IN         TCP    6901
