Hey all, We are running Exchange 2000/Outlook 2000 in Corporate/Workgroup Mode. The Exchange servers are outside the NG FP3 and the Outlook clients are all inside.
I have setup a rule to allow the internal network to access the Exchange servers using the "MSExchange" built-in Group under "Services". The logs promptly fill up with each client connecting to the Exchange server using 135/tcp and then some random tcp-port. Life is good. However, I then see a whole bunch of denied connections from the Exchange server to the Outlook clients on random udp ports. I am puzzled: Isn't the return communication supposed to be in the same state as the outbound traffic? Why are these connections being denied? Do I have to setup another rule that basically allows the Exchange servers to communicate on all high ports (>1024) to the Outlook clients? Without hard-coding the Exchange servers to talk back in a narrow range of ports (we don't have access to those servers), how have you guys been able to enable this Exchange-Outlook communication through the FW1?
