Hey, I am using ZA Pro - on a LAN. 2xComputers - 1xWin2kPro(Server) 1xWin98SE(Client) Using WinRoute for ICS. I also occasionally setup an Unreal dedicated server off my comp. ....and I use IE for www What I want to know is how best to config. the ports. Which to give access to and so forth. Are there any sites that anyone knows of that will give a decent explanation of which browser - and general software - needs what ports ???????????? Is ZA Pro secure enough with just both Local and Internet sliders up full ????????????? Thanks, MiShY

Hey, I'm setting up an Unreal 1 server on my computer and want to configure ZoneAlarm Pro to only use the ports Unreal uses.... Can anyone please tell me which ports Unreal needs 7777 etc. ?????????? ..and also I could do with some help as to configuring the ports themselves in ZA Pro if possible.... Thanks a lot, MiShY

Hey, Yeah my doubt was with what I vaguely remembered being a DOS installer. But I've got it working just cool now thanks with GlQuake, and I'm about to try out that unofficial GLQuake - that sounds so cool Thanks, MiShY

Hey, I am totally new to Win2kPro and was wondering if it's possible to run Quake 1 on it ???? I've just got a new video card and wanted to check out GLQuake. Possible yay or nay ???? Thanks, MiShY

Hey, I've managed to sort this one out.... I have removed the NetBIOS I was using by making my LAN use the TCP/IP protocol, and I've also tightened up the security against spoofing etc. on WinRoute. I did the "Probe My Ports" test again and I passed with flying colours. ie/. ALL Stealth !! Yippeeeeeee !!!!! MiShY

Thanks Bursar cool answer mate I'm gradually getting used to Win2k MiShY

Hey, I'm using BlackICE now because ZoneAlarm hadn't at the time of my installing the network had any protection for NAT networking. I'm using WinRoute Pro - hence the NAT - to share my internet connection. Protocols being used to link the computers - TCP/IP and NetBEUI (I also share one drive from each computer). I ran Steve Gibsons "Probe My Ports" test and most of the scanned ports were in Stealth Mode. However, these ports were "Closed". Which I know does not give someone access like an "Open" port. But like the site said it might invite a persistant hacker to at least try to scan me again at a later date. Unlike a port in "Stealth Mode" obviously. These ports were "Closed" :::: Https IDENT My question is ... Is there anyway to close these ports further using BlackICE, or WinRoute, or perhaps Windows itself ????? My Network :::: 1xWin98SE (Client) 1xWin2k (Pro) WinRoute ICS NetBEUI, TCP/IP, File&Print Sharing Passworded drives Passworded Access to Win2k machine through User designation. Disabled Guest Account Also, do you know of any good sites dealing with Win2k security specifically ???????? Thanks, MiShY

Hey, Thanks mate - that's just what I was after MiShY

Hey, This question should be really easy for yous networking veterans LMHosts file - I have a network of 2 computers, and I'm using Winroute for the ICS. I want to create a LMHosts file but don't know how to do it :::: My IPs 192.168.0.1 A 192.168.0.2 B Is that it ????? Also for A and B which I presume to be the names of the 2 computers do I have to put their location ???? Thanks, MiShY

Hey, I'm totally new to the world of Win2kPro and I've just set up my first network. From win2kpro to win98se. I am sharing my c:\ partition with 98se but I would like to password protect it. I know right click on the drive click sharing then permissions. All well and good. But I set someone from my Win98SE log in group a read-only level but they could still delete files. That being the case I suppose what I have to do is edit the Security tab. By removing the "Everybody" login upon reboot you get a page file error because Windows can't access it. So how can I password this drive ???????? Does anyone know any good security tips for Windows itself ????? Client connects on proxy. BlackICE installed. Thanks, MiShY

Problem solved. Thanks to all who helped !!!! I ended up downloading WinRoute and I've got both these computers connected just about right now Thanks again !!! MiShY

Hey, After several miserable attempts at getting Wingate to work (it worked for about 10 mins till my wife had a go lol) I decided to get Winroute. I have WinRoute4.1 Pro I have for my protocols TCP/IP and NetBEUI. File and print sharing on. and client for MSNetworks. But I can't get the ******* thing to work. I can still access the internet fine on my server. But the Client won't even load a page ( Can anyone help me please ?????????? This is how the whole lot is setup ....... My server :::: Win2kPro - installed Protocols - Client for MSNetworks - File and Printer Sharing - NetBEUI - TCP/IP My client :::: Win98SE - installed Protocols - Client for MSNetworks - File and Printer Sharing - NetBEUI - TCP/IP Server TCP/IP Settings IP address 192.168.0.1 Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0 Client TCP/IP Settings IP address Auto Configure WINS - Use DHCP Default Gateway 192.168.0.1 Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0 WinRoute Settings Ethernet Adaptor :::: 192.168.0.1 NO NAT!

WOOOHOOO some success at last !!!! My client has now managed to realise that I have a Wingate client on my network. Ok, so here's the bad news lol When I open IE the client connects to the server but won't go to any websites whatsoever. It's like it's aimlessly looking for something it isn't going to find. Any ideas ?????????? MiShY

Hey, OK I've got both computers pinging each other ok. Problem now is is that Wingate Client won't detect ANY Wingate servers on the network I'm using version 4.01 Pro. Can anyone please help ??????????? Thanks, MiShY
