ISA server already reset the maximal port number to 65535. Make sure this is the value at HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Service\TcpIp\Parameters\MaxUsePort and restart the computer to apply this change For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp. This is what i get in event viewer, i am unable to make much of it. Does any one have encountered this before and if yes can some one explain it a bit for me or tell me where i should look for this. Thanks in advance.
