    I am running VNC on a server, currently I need to be able to open a specified range of ports. However using the port filtering in routing and remote acces I only know how to close all ports and open one at a time. Does anyone know how to open up a range of ports without opening them all up.

    If I understand this correctly you want to connect to the server from a client machine using VNC? Will this be on the LAN or over the net?
    If over the net is this server the gateway for the client machines on the LAN? As in it has 2 NIC cards and all client machines have to go through this machine to get to the net?
    Please advise.

    It's more that I need the server to be able to access DNS information. Main problem with closing up all ports except for VPN and a few web services. For the server to be able to browse the internet it requires that ports above 1024 to be opened. Since I can not/do not know how to specify a range of ports to be opened using the IP Filtering within RARS my question is how do I open up ports on the server specified by a range rather than individual ports, one at a time within the RARS MMC.

    VNC on Windows defaults to port 5800.
    You can connect to a computer using VNC using a standard web browser that supports java by doing the following:
    http://IP:5800

    So, you should just need to open port 5800.
