[Veritas-bu] Firewall Ports - Which ones?
2003-04-30 11:09:15
What you can try is to open vnetd (13724) from the Master to the Media
Server. Also open up the bpcd (13782) from Media Server to Master Server.
After that you need to go the Master Server Properties and go to the
firewall section. Enter the hostname of the Media Server and select the "No
Call Back" option.
You will need to stop and start services afterwards.
This works for us at the site that I am on.

Hi Tina,
I am currently dealing with a very similar situation and am quickly
getting confused and overwhelmed too, NB uses so many ports! I have not
configured much yet (except an attempt at using vnetd - more below) so
it's all in the theory stage still. The NB 4.5 docs have quite an
extensive description of ports, network communication, and firewall
configuration but it sounds like they may not be all that helpful. You
may want to check out the option of using vnetd which does all the port
translation at the system level and therefore only requires one port
(13724) opened up on a firewall. **However this option did not work for
me because our firewall incorporates NAT which will not work for vnetd.
Unfortunately I had to find that out after tons of testing and
document reading...ahh!
Anyway I know I didn't give you much help but I will share info as I get
it and keep an eye out on this list...
