I have the 54443 port forwarded on my router to my server at port 443. This has never been a problem with Windows Firefox sync. I have also tried listening on port 54443 on the server and just forwarded the port directly to make sure this wasn't an issue. Sorry for the change in port number. I have been experimenting and didn't keep it the same this time. Everything else is the same. https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8853913 Thanks for your quick response! Jerry
