Hi group,
I have a W2K server at a remote location that I'm renting off a Web hosting
company. This server is connected directly to the Internet without any
firewall in front of it or anything. I'm unable to map a drive to this
computer over the Internet, and I think I've come to the conclusion that
it's because my home ISP (Comcast) is blocking ports 137-139 (are they the
ones?). Here is the setup that I had on the remote server while trying to
do this, which I ~think~ should be fine:
-Installed an enabled protocols:
Client for MS Networks
File and printer sharing for MS Networks
NetBEUI
TCP/IP
- TCP/IP Filtering - all,all,all
- All IP Sec policies Unassigned
- Enable netbios over tcp/ip: ON (matters?)
-Server service started
Questions:
1. Does this setup seem like it should work, or am I forgetting something?
2. If my ISP does have these ports blocked, does anyone know of a way to
change the port(s) that Windows uses for hosting file shares?
Thanks,
Ray at home
