Hi,

I'm trying to get amanda to play nicely w/ my firewall, and so i've been reading the documentation on Port usage. I've carved out a large chunk of tcp ports for amanda (all in the unprivileged range... i'm assuming this won't be a problem? (i read that amanda will fall back on any port if it can't find any from 512-1023). Now i need to carve out about 4 ports for the udp. Is it necessary for me to put these between 512-1023? Can anyone suggest some sensible defaults?

Thanks,
Cameron Matheson
