Yes, and I can also run cvs to do anon checkouts from other systems. Log on to 
Sourceforge and you poke around and see what works (or not) first hand.

The external IP address should be in the 84.9.xx.xx block, but I'm not on a 
static IP, so it will change.

First, find a server that is on some dodgy network... Picking one at random 
from the pile of fake medz... fjberiaorpodkam.com completes in 22 hops. As 
for ports - Only the essential ones are enabled for outgoing connections (22 
& 123?), ones like 25, 53, 139, 445 and anything above 1024 get dropped.

And look for what ? - The firewall logs are pretty big files, and rarely get 
looked at except to see if/when there is a problem with authentication with 
my ISP.
