Hi all!



How can I create a rule in Agnitum Outpost 3.5 for direct connections in MSN Messenger 7.5? Especially it is important for me to allow a necessary remote ports for direct connections. If it is possible, please, quote me a specific example.

Thanx, Kate, for your comments.

I resolve my problem by creating follow new rule for my MSN Messenger: Protocol: TCP Direction: Inbound Local ports: 1000-1200

The range of local ports I taking approximately by little experiments results. I not sure how it rule correcting in the view of security but direct connecting while I receiving/sending files works.
