Firewall Configuration

Installation

If you run firewall software on the Server computer you will need to allow network access to several tools which run during the installation to configure and run the central database and determine the server computer network details.

Running Complete Time Tracking Professional

The Complete Time Tracking Professional software installed on the Client computers, communicates with the Complete Time Tracking Professional database on the Server computer using a TCP/IP connection to the default TCP port 18400. The TCP port is configurable.

If you are running a corporate firewall computer between the Client computers and the Server computer, or personal firewall software such as Norton Internet Security, ZoneAlarm, McAfee Personal Firewall or Windows XP firewall on the Client or Server computers, then you must configure the firewall as follows:

•	On the Server computer allow the application cttproserver.exe, located in the server\bin sub-folder where the Complete Time Tracking Professional software was installed, to run as a server listening on TCP port 18400.

•	On the Server computer allow the application CTTServerManagerPro.exe, located in the Complete Time Tracking Professional installation folder, to connect to the server computer using TCP port 18400.

•	On the Server computer and all Client computers allow the application CompleteTimeTrackingPro.exe, located in the Complete Time Tracking Professional installation folder, to connect to the Server computer using TCP/IP.
