Please note:  First Data Global Gateway requires port 1129 be opened for both inbound and outbound traffic.  If you are running on a shared host they may not allow this port to be opened.  Most dedicated hosts will support the opening of port 1129.  Please check with your hosting provider for details.

 

First Data Global Gateway Connect Linkpoint requires the linkpoint.dll to be installed on your server.  When you install Smith Cart the linkpoint.dll is automatically installed in the \bin folder off the root of your DNN install.  The linkpoint dll is 32 bit only and will not work on 64 bit servers.  If you have a 64 bit server you should use the First Data Global Gateway Connect web service gateway option.
