UDP ports required for Cold Fusion MX talking to SQL2000

[DaveBug05]

We just had a super restrictive requirement put in that all UDP traffic except
individual ports, be restricted. We have a dedicated Web/Cold Fusion server
that sits beside a SQL 2000 box, both with unique IP's. On the CF box, we have
both Cold Fusion 5 and MX installed. There is also an ASP site on the web
server.

The problem is:

If I turn off all UDP traffic, the CF5 and ASP sites still work (and
communicate with the SQL box.) However, the sites running CFMX won't work.
Enabling all UDP traffic allows all sites to work again. I then tried
restricting UDP to ports 53, 1030, 3456, 500 and 1232-1258. These were all of
the UDP ports I saw used when running a TCP/UDP monitor when all UDP was turned
on. That still didn't make the CFMX sites work.

So, after exhaustively checking my CF documentation and scouring Google, I can
not find which UDP ports need to be enabled for Cold Fusion MX to talk to SQL
2000.

Can anyone help, please?

Thanks,

David

Hi David,

The only UDP port reference I could find on the MicroMess site was 1434, which isn't in your list.

Try it out.

HTH,
