firewall port

[Robin81998199]

I am setting up a new firewall, and need users to bne able to access a filemaker pro database from outside the firewall. What port should I open to allow users to use my database? Also, should I set it as TCP or UDP? I would guess TCP, but help!!

make sure that IP ports 5003/tcp and 5003/udp, 2399/tcp and 2399/udp are open, both incoming and outgoing. These are the ports that FileMaker uses.

Also, if you are going to use the Web Companion on a different port than 80 (such as port 591) you would need to open that port too.
