Exchange Server And SonicWall 3

[OneMadCoder]

I have a Server running Windows Small Business Server 2003 behind A Sonicfirewall appliance. I'm setting up a Flash Media Server in my office. But I'm not exactly sure how I can get the media server accessible from outside the network.

Do I need to configure the sonicwall to except incoming connections on a specific port or what...

SonicWALL appliances are excellent, but their configuration is remarkably obtuse. I'm not sure which ports need to be opened to enable a Flash Media Server, but your SonicWall rep should. I would give them a call, or post in the SonicWALL forum here forum1385 or in SonicWALL's own support forums:

If you have VPN access your rep should be able to configure the device remotely. Be careful messing around inside that device, but if you do be sure you backup & export the current settings first:

Log in to SonicWALL==>System==>Settings==>Export Settings

You didn't mention the SW model or OS, but this should be similar for all models. Best of luck.

You'll first need to build a service. Call it FlashMedia or RTMP and define the necessary port there (TCP port 1935). Once you've done that, you should just be able to run the Publish Public Server Wizard (or whatever it's called) and in that wizard you'll be able to choose the FlashMedia service as the type of thing you are going to publish. Then you specify the IP of the server that's hosting your FlashMedia install.

That's pretty much it.
