Automatically allow ports on windows firewall #106

Open jithatsonei opened 8 years ago

jithatsonei commented 8 years ago

Basically have SpaceCP automatically allow itself on Windows Firewall which could eliminate a step of troubleshooting.. Possibly implemant upnp as well so it goes thru the routers which do have it enabled.

For me, Windows asked me whether I wanted to open the port (Windows 10). Besides this, I couldn't find out if it was possible to automatically add a rule to the firewall, doesn't seem very secure if apps are allowed to, either.

I looked at the upnp stuff, but I would say this is out of scope for SpaceCP. We should expect the admins to be able to do simple port forwarding and firewall management. They have to do this in order to access the Minecraft server itself.

@totokaka I kind of disagree. Sure in beta right now we expect them to do this, however later we'd like server setup to be as humanly simple as possible. This way we allow more people easy access to getting a server up and running.

Indeed, you do overestimate some people in this regard
