Let me just say that I'm a bit confused. When someone asks about ports and them being closed it refers to "inbound" connections. But, now you seems you are tying to make a connection to the internet from behind a F14 system (acting as a firewall?) and can't connect....for example to http://fedoraproject.org/. So, is your problem trying to access the internet or the internet trying to access a server ? -- Do not condemn the judgment of another because it differs from your own.
