Just make sure that the ports are not already in use.
Check your /etc/services file for "usually" reserved ports. Also try:
# netstat -a
and note which ports are being used already. Ports that are defined in
/etc/services will be listed by name, while ports not defined in the
file will be lists by number.
Personally, I used 700-712.

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
