Securing Your Server * 1x Game Server *

[SGTMikey]

Summary:

- This will pretty much make your remote connection local, so if anyone knows your database username/password you will never be hacked because they cant do shit with it anyways!! Because your sql/port are all local host!
THIS IS ONLY FOR 2005 EXPRESS NOT 2008 RC2

Thanks !!! for your tut !!
But how can i secure sql 2008 ?

Thanks !

21 port must be opened, right? ~ and tcp or udp?

The default FTP Server use port 21 .Better enable both protocols TCP/UDP in FW.

Actually, only TCP. People should only to READ the files and sending some request to the server to edit those files and not contacting the FTP server instead.

UDP can be abused and exploited for a complete manipulation of saved emblems and other stuff saved inside the FTP instance.
