Hi PeterJ Thanks again for the reply. I used the below to find the opened ports C:\WINDOWS>netstat -an |find /i "listening". Im using the open source JBoss application server. Is it that i have to purchase Production JBoss Application server for accessing the application deployed in it from outside world(external network..... the production scenario). Otherwise i dont see any other issue as to why it is not able to respond to request from external world. Help me :) Regards Ved View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4063335#...
