I am trying to find a list of ports used by the most common p2p file sharing applications.
There's a fairly comprehensive list at: http://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/app_port_list.htm But, as someone else said, there's also several that will use ports like 80, 21, 25, and some systems that allow changing the port numbers manually, which I have seen heaps of clued users doing (and, of course, the not-so-clued users doing a couple of days/weeks later). This all makes me want to start my "don't do app-specific shaping on public networks" rant again, but I won't. I'll just point you at my previous rant: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=firewall-wizards&m=103652075227472&w=2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=firewall-wizards&m=103659628332470&w=2 -- Mikael Olsson, Clavister AB Storgatan 12, Box 393, SE-891 28 ÖRNSKÖLDSVIK, Sweden Phone: +46 (0)660 29 92 00 Mobile: +46 (0)70 26 222 05 Fax: +46 (0)660 122 50 WWW: http://www.clavister.com _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () honor icsalabs com http://honor.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
