Port forwarding

bugmenot · February 12, 2009, 2:22am

Ok, I got Openfire set up and working on my lan, but when I forwarded ports 5222 and 5269 to the wan, I got nothing. (and forwarding port 80 gave my my router config page for some reason, so my ISP could be blocking this)

Are their any other ports that I need to forward, or is my ISP up to no good?

It is unlikely that oyur ISP is blocking anything. The issue is you need to make sure that the ports are directed correctly and that the server has a name that can be resolved via a DNS query on the WAN. If the name is just an IP address you may not get it to work. You should also open 5223.
