ADCS Installtion

Hi Freinds,

We have installed ADCS at our client place.We are getting an error saying “Unable to connect to port 6666”.

We are doing telnet 192.168.28.28 6666.

And we have also tried on Hyper Terminal.

Does anybody have idea about this.

It’s been awhile since I’ve used ADCS so here goes…

1.) Make sure the ADCS service is running.

2.) Try connecting via Hyper Terminal on the same machine that is running ADCS and see if that works. If this works, there could be something on the network blocking access to port 6666.

I remember having this problem when I installed it initially but it was so long ago I don’t remember what I ended up doing to resolve it. Sorry I couldn’t be of more help.

Hi Ian,

Thank you for your immediate reply.

The ADCS services is showing running.

I have tried connecting via Hyper Terminal,In Hyper Terminal itself iam getting the error saying “Unable to connect to port 6666”.

Is this something to do with firewall on the server?

Or do we have to open port 6666 manually on server?

Please suggest.

Hi All,

Does anybody know about this issue???

Hi Ashish,

Check the firewall seting for port 6666 and check that ADCS is configured to use port 6666 (in regedit)

or use a different port number.

Hi Dave,

Thank you for your reply.

On regedit the RequestPortNumber is 6666.Can you please tell me how we can test the firewall setting for port 6666.

Or which different port number we can use.

Thanks,

Hi Ashish,

You can choose a port number that suits - check with the network administrator. On the firewall, it will depend on the software used - usually specified in the advanced settings

HI Dave,

After going on to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd355172.aspx we found that ADCS will not work on Windows 2003 server 64 bit .

Its says some modifications needs to be done on 64 bit.Do have any idea ?

Thanks,

Ashish

Hi Ashish,

Sorry, I haven’t implemented ADCS on a 64-bit server so maybe someone else can help

Hi All,

After raising an incident on Miscrosoft we came to know that ADCS will not work on 64 bit operating system.

Solution:If we have another 32 bit O.S 2003 server then we can install ADCS on that with ADCS hotfix and in NAS give the IP of 64 bit server on which Navision database is running.

For the above process we need to install ADCS hotfix which we can get by raising an incident on Microsoft partner source.
