Im currently using Windows Server Enterprise Edition and i want to be able to forward some ports, the internal firewall is now disabled but still ports are being blocked, where could this be, i want to forward some ports around 4661 and for some reason i dont know why they are being blocked?

Port forwarding is not necessarily how you would "unblock" a port. Is your server acting as a router? If not, forwarding ports on it will not accomplish anything.
How is your network set up? Are you using a router? Multiple/single public IP addresses? Where on your network is the computer you want to run a service on port 4661? - and what is that service?

Yep, my server is routing the internet connection between all of my computers. I currrently just use a domain network which is in the process of being set up. The computer that i want to be allowed to use port 4661 is connected to my hub.

Ok. What do you mean by "allowed to use"? What do you want this computer to do exactly?
I assume you're using windows 2003 server? You can configure routing - including port forwarding - from the "configure your server" wizard. Start there.

ok ill have a look, all it is at the moment when i try to use my P2P software to share the music ive created it isnt allowing me to connect to any of the servers, this obviousley means the ports are blocked as in a firewall style way, so yeah ill have a look through on the configure my server, cheers, if u have any other ideas let me know
