Port security - port setting not remembered

[grandnagas]

Hi,
Since upgrading to 6.6.1, port security keeps loosing my settings. I have port 143 open, but over the period of 24 hours, it closes the port again?
Even though in the IMAP bindings it still shows as allow external connections.
I then have to delete the binding and add it again for it to open the port.
Also the default LAN connections to Wingate PC has dissapeared?

Please help.

Hi

We've replicated this on one machine (not all). It looks to be a problem introduced in 6.6.0

It happens when any service changes. E.g. you edit any property of a service, it disables all auto holes for all services, and you then need to restart all the WinGate services or restart the WinGate engine to get the firewall holes open again.

What OS are you running WinGate on?

We will be getting a fix out ASAP, but in the meantime, if you make any config changes to any WinGate service, or any network adapters change, you'll need to restart WinGate or the WinGate services.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Regards

Adrien

Hello,

we have a problem like grandnagas and hope to fix it with WIngate6.6.2.1282, but unfortunatly the link doesnt work... :-(

The port security settings are lost some times per hour and thats not very nice, because also the "hole for smtp server" is one of them... ;-)

Thank You for a fast response!
