Setting up Crytosuite as a server using a Netgear Router and Norton Firewall.
Setting up Norton.
open Norton
click on Personal Firewall
click on 'configure' in right hand panel
Set firewall slider to 'Medium'.
click on 'Programs' tab and look for Cryptosuite.exe in program list. If it is not there click on 'add' and navigate to Crytosuite folder, find Crytposuite.exe, highlight and open. select 'Permit' in pop up window.
In the Netgear Router, access the router browser window at the router's address (192.168.0.1) For further help checkout the netgear website ( http://www.netgear.com/products/consumer/prod_router_wired_hm.php ) and find your router and support pages.
Log into router at pop up login window.
Cryptosuite has first to be set up as a service which then has to entered in firewall rules; as both inbound and outbound connections.
Click on 'Services' link on left side of page.
Click on 'Add Custom Service' and enter name of rule as 'Cs inbnd' set for TCP and set start and finish port as 5094.
Click Apply.
Again click on Add Custom Service' and enter name of rule as 'Cs outbnd'. Set for TCP and set start port as 1000 and finish port as 20000. Click apply
You should now see 2 entries in the Services window.
Next; click on 'Firewall Rules' link. You should see a heading 'Outbound Services' and below that a heading 'Inbound Services', each with four (4) buttons below.
In 'Outbound Services' click on 'Add' button. In the drop down menu against 'Service' find and select the service 'Cs outbnd'. In 'Action' box select 'Allow always' and in the LAN and WAN Users box select 'Any'. Set 'Log' to 'Match'.
Click 'Apply'. You should now see the 'Cs outbnd' entry in 'Firewall Rules' - 'Outbound Services'.
Below that, under the heading 'Inbound Services', click on 'Add'. Against 'Service' find and select the service 'Cs inbnd'. In the 'Action' box select 'Allow always' and in the LAN enter the address that your router uses to talk to your pc. (You can find this by looking at the 'Attached devices' page under the 'Maintenance' heading on the left hand window. If you have more than one device attached to the router, make sure you use the correct address.) In the WAN Users box select 'Any'. Set 'Log' to 'Match'. Click 'Apply'. You should now see the 'Cs inbnd' entry in 'Firewall Rules' - 'Inbound Services'.
Click on the 'Apply' button at the bottom of the page to apply the new rules and log out.
When setting up Cryptosuite as a server be sure to enter your own current ip address into the 'Sever' box, your own password and nickname. Leave the port as the default 5094
No promises and no guarantees, but it should work - did for me.
