I have mimwatch running and the log shows that it is trying to connect to the correct IP (my NAS minimserver address) on port 9791. I have enabled the UDP port 1900 on the firewall but I am getting repeated and failing attempts to connect. I get the message in the form:-

Retrying monitor subscription for server at XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:9791 (attempt xx)

This is repeated every minute or so.
What else should I have enabled please?
This is caused by a firewall on the machine running MinimWatch that is blocking inbound connections to MinimWatch from MinimServer. The port number for the inbound connection is assigned dynamically so you need to allow inbound connections to all port numbers.
