I forgot 2598 is the default port; however you can set it to your preference.

Hi Everyone,

I know how busy everyone is, as no one was able to help us out with the problem 
below, but I thought everyone might like to hear what happened as it may come 
up in others installations, and we had a hell of a time searching online (and 
never found the answer).

Basically we upgraded a server from XP FR3 to Presentation server 3.0, 
everything on the LAN worked fine, and everything in WI worked fine from 
outside.  However Program Neighborhood and Agent would fail outside the LAN, 
with no errors on the server, and the old server not accepting connections 
error on the client.

Well we did all the simple stupid stuff, checked alt address, verified firewall 
mapping, and telnet'ed to the 1494 port.  All worked fine.  What we found out 
was that we enabled session reliability, and that we forgot to map that port to 
the farm.

Nothing tells you to look at this as the problem, and all the articles online 
are related to failed 1494 connections.  We completely forgot about Session 
reliability, until the client was tried with it turned off (all of our clients 
were rolled out with it enabled)

Anyway maybe it will be helpful for someone, or maybe we were just stupid for 
not checking this!!!!

Have a great day

-Eric S. Perkins

Hello Everyone,

We recently started having issues connecting from outside the LAN over Program 
Neighborhood 8.0.  The problem started immediately after we upgraded from 
Metaframe XP to Presentation server 3.0 on Windows 2003 Server.  The upgrade 
went smoothly and there are no errors or anything to indicate a problem.  
Everyone is able to connect properly while on the LAN as well as able to 
connect from outside when using the Web interface.

The only error message we get is: "The Citrix Metaframe server you have 
selected is not accepting connections."

Has anyone experienced this or know of any issues related to this behavior.

Thanks,

Jesse Korn
