Hi

Just upgraded from WHS 2000 to WHS 2011.  I installed MS Webmatrix and created a Drupal website with port 32189.  I had forward this port on my router, but can't seem to access this site either within my home network or from the web.  Can access it from WHS machine, but not from my laptop or other computer.

Can someone tell help to fix this wee issue

Thanks

You need to go into the Control Panel - Windows Firewall and then into the Advanced settings on the list on the left of the screen.
In there create a new Inbound Rule for the port you need.
