I am using http to security.debian.org and mirror.ac.uk. When opening up port 80(http) it makes no difference. I think this is beacause I am not running a service to connect i.e. connecting to port 80 on a remote system from an unprivalged port >1024? Does this mean it will use a different port every time?

I have decided to close everyting and then open up just ssh and ssl. This obviously prevents my apt-get update from working. What ports do I need to open for this to work. If it helps I am going through a proxy to get to the internet. > > > > Thanks > > > > ijg0 > -- > __o > _`\<,_ Marc Demlenne Public Key on www.keyserver.net > (_)/ (_) GPG/768FA483 BFD8 E61B 180C 3E7A 3435 D393 B605 9979 768F A483 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
