NETSTAT

To check machine for what TCP/IP "activity" is happening, you can use the NETSTAT command-line tool included with Windows. This does require an "admin" command prompt.

C:\> netstat -abn

Edit

TRACERT

To review what is between your machine and our servers, you can use the TRACERT command-line tool included with Windows.

C:\> tracert traf.com

Edit

PortQry 2.0

A command-line utility that you can use to help troubleshoot TCP/IP connectivity issues. 80 and 2433 are the ports RT needs to use.


These files need to be extracted before use. Once extracted, open a command line to where these files are located and execute a command similar to:

C:\> portqry.exe -n (server) -e 80 -p TCP

C:\> portqry.exe -n (server) -e 2433 -p TCP

Replacing (server) with either a server name or ip address.

The result should be "LISTENING"; if it is not, "something" is "blocking" the connection.

WMI Test

To test access permissions, we've created a simple test program.


Execute this utility by using the command window; it's output should be the name of the computer, name of the user and the name of the operating system.
