Hi David

I have tried ALLOW_RESERVED_PORTS equal both YES and NO with same result.
 
Unfortunately it seems to be the client there are having issues with 
connections from reserved ports on the client to unreserved ports on the 
media server. The firewall people tell me that the high ports dosn´t arrive 
in the firewall nearest the client.

I´m thinking some kind of network security patch, the client has worked OK 
for over 2 years until this problem.

We have other Windows clients in the same subnet which runs OK.

Regards
Michael
