How can I configure firewall settings in Windows?

Windows may block all incoming TCP/IP connections. So, Xmanager cannot be used without allowing its listening port.

 
Please do the following steps to enable Xmanager connection:
  1. Open Control Panel, and then Windows Firewall.
  2. From the General tab, select On (recommended) option.
  3. Click the Exception tab.
  4. Click the Add Program button.
  5. From the Programs list, select Xmanager.
  6. Click OK.


If you are using Windows XP SP1 or previous releases, follow the instruction below:

  1. Open Control Panel, Network and Internet Connection, and then Network Connections.
  2. Right-click on your Internet connection, and then click Properties.
  3. Click Settings.
    RESULT: Advanced Settings dialog box will open.
  4. Allow TCP 6000 ~ 6010 
  5. If you are using Gnome, allow TCP 16001.
