firewall, browserbased webtop and port 443

Mat,

I have the same issue with binding TTA to 443 port, tarantella refuse to

start due cannot bind port 443.

I followed the document but cant fix the issue.

Also check for a process listening port 443 using lsof and cant find

anything.

First I thought the problem was some Linux config problem but I installed in

the same server without any config changes TTA SGDE 3.42 configured to

listen just 443 port for TTA connections and work fine.

So must be some new limitation or feature for TTA 4.0.

I like to use 443 port for AIP traffic because flow without problem throug

firewalls and proxy servers and make TTA accessible from anywhere.

If anyone can help with this Ill really preciate it.

Regards.

Marcelo
