True enough, but why make it any easier?  I know guys who make a living cutting
through firewalls, OS's etc. I know they're out there and can get in if they want, but
should I not have any security policy? Maybe I should post the PW to my router to 
save them some hassle. ;-)  Point is I'm not witholding anything a valid BB user
cannot obtain with a little pushing.

Why would withholding port information be a good thing?   Any black hat
would be able to figure out port information in a matter of minutes.

Subject: Re: [FW1] TCP/UDP ports for Bloomberg News



I was personally told by their head of infrastructure & Security that they
use 5 ports total.
Originally I was given the same range of ports you were by tech support.
The moral: Scream a little and they'll tell you the truth. ;-)  I don't
think posting them
publically would be doing anyone a favor however so if you're an admin with
BB clients call your ROM at 
BB and they'll get the port #'s for you.

HTH,

Mht,

The port ranges that I know of for Bloomberg are 8194/tcp-8294/tcp and
48129/udp-48192/udp.
