Title: Mac firewall - problem with port and/or router
Post by: wyzoon on August 03, 2007, 08:43:20 AM

I found this thread and replied, but in hindsight should have listed to the suggestion I start a new thread (its a post over 120 days old)

When I try testing my post settings, I get the message Error: TCP port 4662 is unavailable. Make sure your firewall or router is allowing/forwarding this TCP service port and your ED2K client is running (i.e. aMule, eMule).

Detailed Error Message
TCP Error 110 Connection refused

Explanation
The connection timed out, meaning the port is being blocked or incorrectly forwarded by a firewall or your computer is turned off :) 

It looks like most of the answer is posted in this thread, but I get lost after this part - systems preference, sharing, firewall. What should I do next?

try www.portforward.com, and read the documentation for your firewall. Also change the port number, use something between 1025 and 65534.
