It's not as simple as "opening ports". for ISA-bound apps, you generally want packet filters. THe exception is for proxy-aware toys; they can usually use "localhost:8080" to get through. for internal host-bound apps, you'll need protocol rules. THe ISA help and many tutorials on www.isaserver.org cover this pretty well.

I assumed it would be done through the packet filtering, but that doesn't seem to work. How would I open TCP port 1214 for inbound traffic?
