Inbound traffic is discarded

Help for v2
1

my problem is that I can’t find how I can enable a java application to receive incomeing tcp connections

in my application monitor there is an entry c:\windows\system32\javaw.exe
parent c:\export\eclipse\uc.exe

which seems to correspond to my application

on first start I got asked if I want to allow this program … so I klicked yes…
the application now allowed outgoing connections… no incoming
so I went back to application monitor and set the direction combobox to “in/out”
also I set in misc to allow invisible attempts and to skip advanced checks…

etheral shows me that the other side sends a syn … but no connection is made…

what do I need to do?
(with firewall disabled it works … useing 2.3.6.81)

hi,man,

you need to open some ports for you javaw.exe to receive the incoming tcp connections.
1.you need to konw what prots your javaw.exe used to receive the incoming connections.
2.go to the “NETWORK MONITOR”, add a some new rules.

sorry for my poor english… (R)

but I do have there a rule that says:

Allow TCP/UDP from ip any to ip any from port any to port any ?

why does this not work as it implies?

ok i see this is only for outgoing traffic …

that feels like s strange standardsetting for a software-firewall in the personal area …

5

if you do that in the NETWORK MONITOR that’s will put your PC face to the internet,without the firewall protection .

nope it doesn’t for network issues I have a hardware-firewall …

I use a personal firewall only to monitor and block connections per application …

or do I understand this wrong? if i set that rule to “in or out” in the network monitor then my applications will also be allowed to receive connections if I allow the application itself … at least that is what I expect
