Ray, I am not taking it wrong at all, but thank you for your concern. My situation (problem) is that my system administrator got another job elsewhere and left. They don't want to replace him, so I have to do it. = I have only had one class on Windows 2000 administration (an Active = Directory class) which certainly did not cover things like opening ports in = firewalls. Therefore, I have no idea how to do it, and no idea where to look to = find out. That's why I'm asking on this list. =20 Rod =20 -----Original Message----- Subject: [windows2000] Re: Opening a port in Windows 2000 Date: Wed, 21 May 2003 17:28:45 -0400 From: "Costanzo, Ray" <rcostanzo@xxxxxxxxxxx> Don't take this the wrong way or anything, but like, don't you have a firewall administrator that would know how to open a port?
