2 - There is a web site that shows your open ports. I can't remember the
name. Sorry. I did tests to prove open ports are readily seen. I did not
have to reconfigure the router to do the tests. The site uses your IP to
probe.

That's the one. Thank you.
Note: You said earlier that outgoing ports are not the problem, but
actually they can be - how do you think botnet nodes communicate with
their control? ...
If that's the case, you already have a virus. If you already have a virus, then they can do anything
that's allowed by that user. If the user is Administrator, then they can do anything an
administrator can do. That's why Microsoft starting creating higher accounts than Administrator:
Trusted Installer and the like. That's when I knew I had to defend myself against Microsoft. I did.
I run as Administrator. I run zero anti-virus. I have as close to a single-user system as possible.
I don't get viruses, impossible.
... On your router, you should have all internet facing
ports closed except those that are strictly needed for normal net
functionality.
Of course.
FWIW Resolve uses a database approach to its projects. (Avid uses files (bins
aka .avb files) as does Premiere. That likely accounts for at least one of the
open ports if not more
I think you're referring to collaborative software, not databases.
The database approach is true genius: you get extremely fast, powerful, free
open source project sharing. In the array of tradeoffs between editing
systems, this one's a plus for Resolve. But that benefit can involve open
ports, and closing them can undermine its ability to function
Yup, trust me, I'm from Blackmagic. Are you a convenience fool? If so, you
don't get on my LAN.
