Problems w/ UDP Rule for RocketTime

I have created a UDP rule for <a href="http://www.rocketsoftware.com/portfolio/rockettime/overview.htm">RocketTime time check software</a> and it works fine when LnS first starts, but I soon get a log full of blocks on the second through fifth time servers entered in the options of RocketTime. The log starts filling up with entries with sequencial port blocks starting at 1622 and running up the list (I've reset LnS when the ports get beyond 2200).

Is there a way to add the other time servers to the rule or do I have to create a rule for each server? The server IP's are 129.6.15.29 (works), 216.200.93.8, 131.107.1.10, 209.0.72.7, and 128.138.140.44

RocketTime notifies the user to make sure port 123 is open on NAT routers or firewalls. Currently, my rule has TCP/UDP port 123 listed on both the source and destination entries along with the source MAC set to equal and the destination IP set to equal for the IP of the first Time server.

 

Hello,

you can allow the local port from any IP as suggested apparently by them, or you have to create 3 rules, 2 IP addresses per rules.

I have now acquired more detail on my problem. It appears that the problem exists with all the Time Servers and happens with the automatic update, which i set for very four hours. The UDP:Any other UDP packet rule is where I'm being blocked. The source port range is starting at 1025 and going to 5000 (not all ports are being listed, but most are).

Is there a problem with changing the source TCP/UDPort from "Equal 123:ntp" to "All"?
