This firewall can interfere with the execution of backups from a Retrospect client computer to a Retrospect backup computer. If you already have XP Service Pack 2 installed, before installing the Retrospect client software, then the installer will automatically adjust the Windows firewall settings for you. But, if you install SP2 after the Retrospect client, then you need to make these changes yourself. To adjust settings on a Retrospect client computer - Click **Start** on the taskbar, and then click **Control Panel**. - Click **Security Center**. - Click **Windows Firewall**. By default, the **On (Recommended)** radio button is selected. If not, please select this button. - Click the **Exceptions** tab. - Click **Add Port**. - In the Name field, type: **Retrospect (TCP)** - In the **Port Number** field, type: **497** - Select the **TCP** radio button if it is not already selected by default. - Click **OK**. - **Retrospect (TCP)** should appear with a check box selected in the Program and Services window. - Select **Add Port**. - In the **Name** field, type: **Retrospect (UDP)** - In the **Port Number** field, type: **497** - Select the **UDP** radio button. - Click **OK**. - **Retrospect (UDP)** should appear with a check box selected in the Program and Services window.
