Firewall config 10.4.2

[tim andonian]

I discovered that my firewall settings for ‘any’ were not allowing outside access to my website. I check ‘allow all traffic’ for ‘any’, and I can then load my website fine. Then I figure that leaving this open is not a good idea, and I try to figure out exactly the ports I need to open to achieve the same results, without leaving it wide open, but I can’t figure it out. It seems to load half way and then have trouble when only port 80 is allowed, and then I have experimented with turning several others on and off, with no luck.
Any tips on how to configure the firewall. I have weblogs activated as well.

Do you have the performance cache turned on? It uses port 16080

Yes, I had that box checked off in the options tab for that site. I just unchecked it, and it works. Thanks.
