Does this mean that I've to open all ports (> 1023) thru the firewall? If so what is 
the easiest way (rule) to allow the tcp high ports in FW-1. [I'm a newbie in FW]

Thanks for your response

Hello,

This is a typical problem with all kind of client/server applications!
You have to allow tcp-high ports on your firewall!

Kind regards,

Everything is working fine if I open all ports thru the firewall. I'm not
able to restrict the application to use only predetermined ports. I checked
all available documentations, manuals etc.

using the 'stateful' thing in FW-1??) Or is this to be handled only thru
the application?
