CimcoNFS with Windows firewall

NC FAQ1039

Question:

Data transmission with CimcoNFS only works if the firewall is completely deactivated. Is there a solution?

Answer:

The problem is not the CimcoNFS server, but the configuration of the firewall.

Configuration of MS firewall:

Start the Windows firewall from the Control Panel (wcsui.cpl or firewall.cpl).

On the Exceptions tab, use Program > Browse to find the files (services) portmap.exe and nfs.exe (the default directory is C:\CIMCO\NFS\) > Open and then add them with OK. These two entries are then listed as activated (with a check mark) under Programs and Services. Via Edit > Change Area... you can activate the option “My network (subnet) only” or restrict access via “User-defined list”.
