 (B)Hello,

First of all let me say I use a lot of Comodo!

I use BOClean, the firewall, and I pay for Trustfax!

Now here is my problem.

I have the latest firewall installed.

and I have Activesync. Can't get Activesync to work while Comodo Firewall is running.

 Angry

I read and reread this and I can't make "hoosegow" over this...

http://forums.comodo.com/frequently_asked_questions_faq_for_comodo_firewall/activesync_and_comodo-t743.0.html;topicseen

If someone could, just please post step by step instructions. The instructions above don't match what I see when I try to follow them

Please. I'd like to keep using the Firewall.

Jim

I don't have ActiveSync, i don't even know what it is. What exactly failed you?
1- show me what rules you created
2- try to use it (?) and look at the logs; show them here

Here's another thread, in another forum (Stem is an expert):

HA! that screenshot did wonders. You have to move that last rule ABOVE the last BLOCK rule. That will work.
I replied there too.

When you're writing a post, below is an option "Additional Options...", Click it and attach a pic.

Regarding the rule, here's the scoop: the firewall will interpret the rules from the top down. So a packet  arrives, Comodo will read the first rule; if the rule matches the packet, Comodo applies the rule and disregards the next rule. Since the last block rule blocks all (a security measure), any rule below it will never match.

Oh, okay.. I see on both counts..

So, now, I moved the rule, and at least it now syncs. However, it seems stuck, forever "looking for changes".. It's been over 5 minutes. Usually it takes about 15 to 30 seconds.

I am going to post this at the Wilders forum.
Thanks

From here ( http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/help/activesync/default.mspx ) i think you need to add these ports besides 990:
Quote
ActiveSync also uses the following ports for communication to/from these processes:
Inbound TCP:
    *      990
    *      999
    *      5678
    *      5721
    *      26675

Outbound UDP:
    *      5679

Note that the outbound UDP is already allowed by Comodo's default rules. No need to create a rule for that, just add these TCP ports in the rule you made.
