About network configuration and TCP Remoting Channel

Sage 100 Contractor uses the TCP Remoting Channel, a Microsoft .NET Framework component, to enable communication among computers on a network. By default, Sage 100 Contractor uses the TCP starting port 48760. Certain configurations can potentially disable the communication:

• You must enable file sharing on your computers. To enable file sharing, follow the instructions in the Windows Help.
• TCP communication requires the selection of port numbers that are not in use by other processes on the local computer.
• Software firewalls running on the local computer can be configured to block processes from opening TCP ports, which will prevent communication through the TCP Remoting Channel.
