Nothing special, ViceVersa works over the Windows Network and the SMB protocol.

So it works on following ports.
TCP Ports 137/UDP, 137/TCP, 138/UDP and 139/TCP and SMB traffic uses port 445 (TCP and UDP)

The SMB (Server Message Block) protocol is used among other things for file sharing in Windows NT/2000/XP. In Windows NT it ran on top of NetBT (NetBIOS over TCP/IP), which used the famous ports 137, 138 (UDP) and 139 (TCP). In Windows 2000/XP/2003 or newer, Microsoft added the possibility to run SMB directly over TCP/IP, without the extra layer of NetBT. For this they use TCP port 445. Ports 137-139 are for NetBios/Name resolution. Without it you will have to access machines by IP address opposed to NetBIOS name. Example \\192.168.1.100\share_name opposed to \\my_file_server\share_name. So port 445 is sufficient if you can work with IP addresses only.

Hi

I have viceversa and i would like to mask the smb port so say send vice versa out over port 1234 and then my router to translate that and change to smb.

Can this be done for example IPADDRESS:1234 or something along those lines.
