Please log in for more thread options the computer name (or IP) is required (at least it is on server 2k3 R2
sp2)... it does not let me leave it blank, so I just put in the local IP
since i'm just looking to allow a port on the local machine that is not to
be forwarded to another machine, the service *is* running locally. When
looking at the existing service's however (the preconfigured ones), the
computer name (or IP) is blank. You also must specify the external port. If
you leave the internal port blank you will notice when you go back in, it
automatically filled it in as the same as the external port number.
so again, the interface looks geared for setting up port forwarding, but I
don't see another way to add exception to individual NIC(interface) for host
only stuff (non-port forwarding).. so I wanted to verify what I did is how
it should be done. It does work, unless I have something set somewhere else
that is making it work that I don't realize.
