Don't disable ports 3000-3999
Authored by: tsaar on May 21, '02 03:44:50PM

Hmm, interesting

But I guess the L337 H4x0r does not have to try I guess.

If he does a portscan on 3000 - 3999 first he'll know what ports you're listening on.....

The thing is: it's just not nice to have 'uncontrolled' listening ports opened up by any program when you are connected to the net 'barenaked' like I am.....

I'm blocking 3000 - 3999 (even if it screws up my ability to use active FTP sessions.....)
