Port thing.

[-Sensei-]

Good day everyone,

I have Windows 2008 R2 64 bit vps A already added all the ports needed in firewall and only 80 port is open.

I am runnin my server on this port 9958 5816 and i cant log on on my server , i already allow them in firewall and there is no problem with port 80 .

Any idea. This is my first time runnin on a vps

You haven't actually told us what the problem is...except that its port related.

I am runnin my server on this port 9958 5816 and i cant log on on my server , i already allow them in firewall .

and im confused about that because port 80 is open without allowing in firewall, are 80 port is auto forwarded ?

There's probably something between you and the VPS besides the firewall (or another firewall.) My hosting had a page on the web-based control panel that let me select which ports to open. There's a difference between a port being: Open; Closed; and Filtered.

Open, Close and Filtered.... If I open it Filtered what does it mean? (Open is obviously Open )

[Zeroxelli]

Filtered usually means it cannot be fully labeled as open/closed because something else the machine is doing is blocking further information from being retrieved.
