What version of windows are you using?  I don't think the firewall is loaded on 
the server versions.  If your using XP pro for your server, you might want to 
think about changing that.  Otherwise, the quickest method is to create an odbc 
link from the server to the server and run it to get the popup from the 
firewall.

The firewall is on the server, not the client machine.

The UVODBC on the server is part of Universe, so I can't just tell it to
allow the application access as far as I am aware, or do I tell it to
allow UV.EXE or something?

Also, there haven't been any pop up windows asking for access. This is
not like other firewalls that I am normally fine with.

Thanks

Subject: Re: [U2] Windows firewall and UVODBC

Add UVODBC to the exceptions.  You can do this one of two ways, one is
to make an UVODBC connection from the windows machine with the firewall
and wait for the firewall warning to come up.  The warning screen gives
you the option of allowing that program to contine and adding it to the
exceptions list.  The other way is to go into the control panel, find
the firewall applet and add UVODBC to the exceptions there.

Hello,

We have Universe running on Windows with the Windows firewall installed,
but the firewall is stopping access to the UVODBC.

Normally I can configure firewalls to let the UVODBC through, but the
Windows one is not one that I am familiar with.

Has anyone got any experience with this and if so do you have the
settings required or any advice?

Thanks
