Q: I use Windows 2000 for Internet Sharing. Can anyone tell me how to open one port on it? Should I open a specially for this game to get to work? (Anarchy Online)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
ps. I assume, of course, that Windows 2K acts as a sort of firewall or proxy in this case.

Re:One thing to burn into your mind: with windows operating systems and programs you have to clamp them down. Everything is open by default. You might consider disabling the Telnet service also as it is installed by default.
You mentioned you have a DHCP server right? Its probably a router like the SMC Barricade or Netgear RT311/314 right? I would think your problems lie in the router config. Once again, since your router is made by somebody other than microsoft it probably has to have its ports OPENED as opposed to closed down.

Re:Pro.
90% of the programs I use run well.
I can see all of the computers on the network, including the DHCP server, and I can explore and do what I want to the files on that computer. All other computers are running windows 98SE
all are wide open, eh? guess I should probably get a firewall on that.

Re:FTP is port 20 or 21 (both actually but one is specifically for data). What version of Windows 2000 are you running? Pro, Server, Adv. Server?

Re:I can see all of the computers fine and can easily share Internet access, printers, and files.
But I cannot host Internet games nor can anyone send me files over ICQ. I think I'm having a similar problem with Anarchy Online.
THANKS!

Re:By default all of your ports are wide open. To get there anyway however, right click on My Network Places. Choose properties and in the screen that pops up next right click on the network connection you want. Choose properties again and then select TCP/IP. Select properties at the bottom and then the Advanced button at the bottom of the box that pops up. Click on the Options tab and then click on TCP/IP filtering and then properties. There you are. Sure glad that is not buried in the OS.:D
