Azure - Port Forwarding
Hi Azure Experts
I'm trying to set up Port Forwarding and it isn't working very well. I want port 25565 to be available from public internet.
I have setup the Endpoint in the VM:

I have created this Endpoint while the VM was powered off. Booted up the VM and added port 25565 to the Windows Firewall Inbound Rules but I'm getting "Port 25565 is closed on MYEXTERNALIP" when using http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ - its worth nothing that if I test the Remote Desktop port it on the same YouGetSignal site it says its open.
I have put the VM into my one Network on Azure.
Any suggestions would be great.
