Hi all,
The (usual) port for MSN is listed as 1863 (tcp). I need to block the
Messenger using a un*x firewall, so I blocked that port. This takes care
of the linux MSN clients like everybuddy, but the windows client seems
to hop to the next available high port. I do not want to block high
ports.... and yet I need to get the chat clients blocked. Is there any
way I can do this?
Patrick.
