 * I”m not able to get jetpack to connect. Is there something different or special
   about getting it to work on a windows server vs linux?
 * domain is interliner.com

 * Jetpack uses your site’s XML-RPC file to communicate with WordPress.com. Unfortunately
   I cannot access that file on your site at the moment:
    [http://interliner.com/xmlrpc.php](http://interliner.com/xmlrpc.php)
 * If you use a security plugin to block access to the file, you’ll need to configure
   it to allow incoming and outgoing connections to /xmlrpc.php.
 * If you do not use such plugin, you’ll want to contact your hosting provider and
   ask them if they currently block access to your site’s XML-RPC file.
 * I hope this helps.

 * THanks for pointing that out. I know there is a bypass that can be written into
   teh .htaccess. I see on a windows server that file is web.config is there something
   I can write into that file to open up xmlrpc to jetpack?

 * That will depend on your server configuration. I would suggest asking your hosting
   provider for help.
