Firewall Exceptions for Programs versus Ports
I'm running Microsoft Office Groove and it is setup under Vista (Business
edition) Firewall Exceptions as a Program, not a Port. To clarify, when you look at the properties of the Groove (Program) Exception, it does not mention anything about ports. I know I can add an exception specifically for Port 2492 (Groove's primary communication port), but would that be redundant if the Program Exception for Groove already opens up that specific Port. Hope that makes sense. I had posted the same question in the Groove Discussion Group here - http://www.microsoft.com/communities...6-4c555df48526 but one of the Mods referred me to this group. Hope someone can help. Thanks. |
