TCP 445 and 139
Hi, I'm using 7.6.0.1. Can someone tell me why I need TCP ports 139 and 445 open to back up a SQL server? In the doco it says it's used for remote registry, but not sure what impact this has on the backup. I have a SQL server behind a firewall. I have opened up 1556, 13724, 13720 and I can back the server up successfully. I noticed was that ports 139 and 445 were being blocked by the firewall between the master server and the client. The only thing I can't do is get the policy to auto detect what type of server the SQL server is when you add it to a policy. I can edit host details though.
Thanks.
Check this
Front End to/from SQL client hosts also use the "remote registry service" which requires TCP ports 135, 137, 138, 139 and 445.
