Smoothwall: How do I make ports available??(newbie)


I have smoothwall working. Now someone wants ports 9000-9004 open.

The smoothwall docs have no examples, which makes it really hard for me.

The best I can figure, I need to use port forwarding, or external service access. I'm betting on the second.

So:

external service access

proto source dest port enabled
[TCP] [ ALL ] [ 9000 ] [X]

This should mean that all outside connections using port 9000 wil be granted access? Is it bi-directional? Can all our internal systems send on port 9000?

Someone file sharing program wont work thru NAT.


Thanks.
