Port Information

adTempus uses the TCP protocol for communication between the client and the server. The server listens on port 3760; the client uses a dynamically-assigned port.

If you are using remote administration and your server is behind a firewall, you will need to make sure that the firewall is configured to allow incoming connections on port 3760.

Changing the Port

If for some reason you need adTempus to use a different port, you can do so as follows:

  1. Using the Registry Editor, locate the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcana Development\adTempus\Instances\Default. (If you are changing the setting for an adTempus instance other than the default instance, replace "Default" with the instance name.)
  2. If this key does not have a subkey named Options, create one.
  3. Under the Options key, create a new string (REG_SZ) value called Server:Port. Set this value to the port number you want to use. Important: the registry value must be a string value, not a DWORD value.
  4. You must restart the adTempus service for the change to take effect.

Users must specify the correct port number in the Server Connection window when connecting to the server. If the server is connected to as a Remote Agent or a Linked Server, the port must be specified in the Remote Agent properties or Linked Server properties when defining the connection.
