Bonjour Sync - Firewall questions Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Prev Previous Post   Next Post Next
I am attempting to sync OmniFocus between a MacBook and an iMac using Bonjour Sync. The Sync Database is on my iMac, and the MacBook is set to connect to that.

If I turn off the firewall on the iMac, everything works fine with the MacBook sync. But if I activate the firewall on my iMac, the sync fails on my MacBook. (The firewall on my MacBook does not seem to cause any problems since the iMac is hosting the sync database.)

Is there a port number (or set of ports) that I need to open within the firewall to allow Bonjour syncing (as Apple has provided for iChat, iTunes, and iPhoto Bonjour Sharing)? Or another setting within OmniFocus that I am missing?

Thank you for any help you can provide.
