I’m posting this in all of the Lotus Domino forums at it has little to do with Release version.
I have a server that’s working fine along with a number of users already connected and replicating.
However, one of my users has begun working offsite and their firewall won’t allow any port traffic above TCP or UDP 1024.
So I’m trying to find a way that he can replicate using TCP port 975 (we don’t use this for anything else).
But I can’t figure out how to get our Lotus Domino server to listen on port 1352 (default) AND on Port 975?
Obviously, I have to still be able to listen on port 1352 as I have 100+ existing users already connected and configured.
Any ideas? (I already tried redirecting public TCP 975 to private 1352, but that didn’t work).
Thanks.
Subject: You can try to add Notes ports
How about doing the following changes to the notes.ini of the server:
TCPIP=TCP, 0, 15, 0,32
TCPIP2=TCP, 0, 15, 0,32
Ports=TCPIP,TCPIP2
TCPIP2_TCPIPAddress=0,127.0.0.1:975
TCPIP2 is your new Notes port and replace 127.0.0.1 with the servers IP-address. You may also need to add this port information in ports-section of the server document.
I would suggest using port 443 (HTTP SSL) unless your Domino-server also provide HTTPS services. In my experience very few firewalls stops Notes traffic on port 443.

Subject: What he said and…
Remember to modify the connection document so it will point to servername.com:975 instead of servername.com
Other than that you probably will want to check the hostname in the server document to make sure it’s correct.
