Port Range?
Hi!
I have a small problem with my XMLRPC Server.
I have a Firewall between my Server and my Client.
When I forward only the port 8080, on which my Server is listening, then
nothing worked. If I forward all the ports, it works just fine.
Which Portrange must I forward to tighten the security?
Regards
Sven Kerkling

I run an XMLRPC server behind a firewall, contained inside a Jetty servlet
container. I only have to forward the port it listens on, no others.
Are you using a servlet container, or the built in XMLRPC mini-server?

The problem is most likely that you don't understand how to configure
the firewall.
A connection made from a client to your server will have port 8080 on
the server side, but some arbitrary port between 1024 and 65535 on the
client side.
