Firewall - Outbound Ports

[Chris Golden <cgolden () LEEUNIVERSITY EDU>]

I am in the process of deciding wether or not to change my firewall strategy for outbound ports.  We allow gaming in 
the dorms and keeping up with all the games and their enormous port ranges is a huge time sink.  I have polled some 
other schools and found that they do not block outbound ports however I feel like some need to be blocked.  Which ports 
do you block outbound?  Which ports do you recommend being  blocked outbound (SMTP, NetBios, etc.)?

 

Thanks for the help.
