Program Server Rights - Issue or Deny ?

[Elkanah]

I am really not able to configure out - When should I give a program "server rights" and when should I deny a program "server rights"?

[Snake08]

Whenever you initiate a server over the network for playing games that require PTP connection, you can issue server rights so that other players can also connect to your game or initiate second server if there are too many players

[Steve123]

Allowing a program to have server rights means that an outside connection can access your computer through that program.

Consider the following three situations:

• You are hosting a Web site on your computer
• You are sharing files with another person(s)
• You are playing games that require point-to-point connections with other players across the Internet

If any of these situations apply to you, then you should give programs server rights.

If none of the above examples applies to you, it is not recommended that you allow any program to have server rights. In that case, deny server rights
